The goal is to provide as much assistance to many families. As of 2022 food security for Richland County 9.4 percent and Lexington County 9.1 percent. State of South Carolina poverty rate is also high compared to the national average. Our organization hope we can make a little difference helping families. As stated, we will be providing services under a range open umbrella of food insecurity, clothing, domestic violence support in support and supplies and empower and educate our youth on anti-bullying and loving self.
FOD will review the family/families request, and will provide (i.e. grocery baskets, gift cards, clothes, utilities, etc). There is a limit what we can provide, due to budget constraints.
These are the Core Values FOD relies on: - FAITH
Family: we are strong with warmth, compassion and to support one another.
Action: we provide quality volunteerism and much needed assistance to families.
Impact: to provide positive enthusiasm to others and serve.
Team: we work & win together to make it happen.
Hope: we always have goal- setting with positive anticipation.
