Holiday Food Distribution with Park Circle Cares

Volunteer to distribute food with Park Circle Cares. SHL will be supporting Park Circle Cares’ December food distribution. Just 4 days before Christmas, this is a great way to help others enjoy high quality, healthy food this holiday season.

Park Circle Cares, is our 2024 Q4 Charity of the Quarter. As of November 16th raised have raised $270. You can support their work by donating here, but they also need volunteers to help distribute food. They are a non-faith based, non-profit organization created in 2016 to assist people in the lowcountry who struggle with food insecurity. Park Circle Cares is a member agency with the Lowcountry Food Bank, and distributes 120-150 thousand pounds of food each year. What makes them unique among the many organizations working on the widespread problem of food insecurity in our community is that they only distribute healthy and nutritious foods, 75% of which is produce. Healthy dry goods and proteins make up the remainder.

Park Circle Cares is operated by an all-volunteer working board, and an enthusiastic group of volunteers who set up a farmers’ market style distribution at North Charleston High School on the third Saturday of each month.

Afterwards, we are invited to join the Park Circle Cares volunteers at Southern Roots on Montague for a bite to eat and drink.
