April 2021 News and Announcements

April 5, 2021 by Jentry Ward

2020 – 2021 Campaign Update

This year, UWHC’s goal is to raise $950,000 to improve access to health, education, and financial stability for every person in Horry County. Thus far, our community has pledged $769,528.16. That is 81.0% of our total goal!

  • $5 weekly can provide free tax assistance to 30 families
  • $10 weekly can provide services to 10 domestic violence victims
  • $20 weekly can feed a family of four for a year
  • $50 weekly can provide one year of high-quality after school care for a child in Horry County
  • $100 weekly can provide 65 children with needed dental services

There is officially ONE month left to our campaign! Help us increase our percentage and donate today!
