Columbia County Cares Food Bank
Our mission is to provide food, health, and comfort items free of charge to the under-served families in Columbia County.

We are an ecumenical, 501c3 non-profit organization which has been serving the needs of the underserved families of Columbia County since 1996. We have no paid employees: All of our workforce is 100% non-paid volunteers.
How we accomplish our mission
By collecting the food, financial and volunteer resources necessary to feed families in Columbia County and distributing grocery, health, and comfort products to every area of need in Columbia County, we serve over 5,000 families per year. That takes over 900 volunteer hours every month!
Women in Philanthropy
Women in Philanthropy
Women in Philanthropy is a charitable organization of over 160 women in the Central Savannah River Area of Georgia and South Carolina who are committed to a philanthropic effort focused on the unique needs of women and children within the local communities.
Each year, grants are awarded to non-profit programs and projects that have the potential for high impact, resulting in significant positive change in the lives of women and children in Aiken, Burke, Columbia, Edgefield, McDuffie or Richmond Counties.
As members of WIP, we all recognize that there are tremendous needs in our communities. However, through our work, we have been collectively struck by the enormity of those needs.
Of the many requests received in the 2018-19 cycle, Women in Philanthropy awarded $146,250 to eight area non-profit organizations.
Since our inaugural year, 2009, Women in Philanthropy has awarded $1,065,610 dollars in grants.
