LOVE WHERE YOU LIVE
We think living in the Lowcountry is a pretty sweet deal, and as followers of Jesus, we know the greatest thing we can do for anyone is to show them some LOVE! So, we put two great things together and are calling it Love Where You Live - a great time to LIVE ON LOCAL MISSION!

LOVE WHERE YOU LIVE IN BLUFFTON!

LOVE WHERE YOU LIVE IN BEAUFORT COUNTY!
FAMILY PROMISE OF BEAUFORT COUNTY
Family Promise of Beaufort County’s mission is to provide temporary shelter, family stability, and permanent housing solutions for homeless families with children by mobilizing resources from interfaith and secular communities. Every act that they take is in furtherance of the vision that every child will have a home.
Family Promise operates the Freedom House which provides a stable and supportive environment for families with children who are experiencing homelessness or are at immediate risk. Freedom House can house up to seven families at a time — accommodating up to 21 individuals — in a supervised communal living setting. Families may stay for up to 90 days in residence, during which time they receive essential support services and work toward long-term stability and independence. Once they transition into permanent housing, they remain in Family Promise’s 12-month follow-up program for continued support and success.
LOVE WHERE YOU LIVE IN HILTON HEAD!
Boys & Girls Club of Hilton Head Island
Boys & Girls Club of Hilton Head Island has a simple mission – to enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, RESPONSIBLE citizens.
The Club has enjoyed great success as an organization, but there is more to be done. They need to prepare the Club for the new generation of learners who may be left behind without access to technology and innovation to spark their interest and feed their passions. As Hilton Head’s tourism economy grows, so does the demand for workers who need extended hours of after school and summer child care. The Club need to be able to serve more children and need to ensure they have access to academic programs and enrichment opportunities that they would otherwise never have.
LOVE WHERE YOU LIVE IN BEAUFORT!
