Our 2022 Day of Caring will be held at Finklea Alumni Community Center, located at 3501 SC-917, Loris, SC 29569, on Friday, October 21, 2022. 

This year, hundreds of volunteers will gather at Finklea Alumni Community Center (FACC) in Loris to collectively work on one service project. FACC hosts Finklea Family After School Team (FFAST), the area’s only free afterschool program for youth ages 4 to 18. The program offers academic, social/emotional, recreation, and enrichment services. Adult education services are offered during program hours for parents, young adults, and community members. FACC also hosts community food distributions, household goods distributions, and health programs.

FACC serves some of the most underserved communities in Horry County and is a great way for us to give back this year.

Come join us as we make a huge impact on this community and the families served!

Volunteers will arrive for registration and breakfast between 8:30 – 9:30 am. A short program will begin around 9:15 am, followed by a group picture. Work should begin by 10 am and clean-up completed by 4 pm. Projects include painting, flooring, landscaping, electrical work, and construction projects.

Volunteer registration is preferred in advance and will include breakfast, lunch, and a t-shirt! Complete registration here. *Selected t-shirt sizes are only guaranteed if registration is completed before September 16, 2022.*
