UWHC’s Day of Caring is our biggest service project day of the calendar year when over 300 volunteers come together to give back to our Horry County community!

This year’s sites include Sea Haven for Youth, Habitat for Humanity and Waccamaw Youth Center. The morning kickoff will be back at HGTC (Conway Campus) this year, with more details to come.

This list of supporters is just getting started.. want to see your business listed here? There are other ways to support this beyond monetary donations: we are also seeking in-kind donations for food, supplies, tools and site wish-lists.
