Overview
Mission

What it reported doing in 2024
Foodshare Georgetown is a partnership between CHR and FoodShare South Carolina with a mission to increase access to, knowledge of and consumption of vegetables and fruit through community-led projects. All of FoodShare's work is guided by strong beliefs that reflect our commitment to food security and food justice. We distribute food to food desert area of our community. Foodshare Georgetown County: We delivered more than 185,000 lbs. of fresh produce and vegetables to our community. CHRSC partnered with Food Share South Carolina in August 2021, working to help reduce the food access disparity in our community. Many of our residents face a myriad of barriers including housing, age, poverty, and reliable transportation. These are challenges to engaging in a healthy lifestyle and providing an environment in which their children can thrive and succeed. A healthy Georgetown County starts with healthy eating habits. We strive to enhance the quality of life in our diverse communities by increasing access to fresh, affordable produce and providing quality cooking skills education. We provide 'healthy eating' classes in or Afterschool program and, with funding, our goal is to send each child home, every day, having eaten a healthy meal.
