ERC 2nd Anniversary

by | Jan 22, 2020

Education & Resource Center 2nd Anniversary


Our Education and Resource Center (ERC) is turning two next month! The ERC was created to provide additional resources for our neighbors whose income falls above the poverty line yet well below a livable wage. We are incredibly proud of the work we have been able to do and continue to do through the ERC’s programs, workshops, hiring events, ESL classes, job skills training and GED classes in partnership with BCSD Adult Education.

We know our neighbors cannot be truly successful until their basic needs are met but the Education & Resource Center takes our mission one step further- to create opportunities for our neighbors in need. These opportunities truly change lives and support our neighbors on their path to personal success. We continue to grow and innovate to meet the needs of our community and to break the cycle of poverty.

Looking forward, we’ll continue to improve and expand our core services of food, clothing and emergency financial assistance, while building on the early success of our Education & Resource Center. Our vision is to be recognized as Beaufort County’s leading community-centered organization that facilitates and engages the community and other human services organizations to improve the quality of life and provide a personal pathway to success for all fo our neighbors in need.

Check out our monthly ERC Calendar for all the events & classes!
