Changing Lives, One Swing at a Time

The L.D. Barksdale Sickle Cell Foundation has been a cornerstone of support for individuals and families impacted by sickle cell disease in South Carolina. The foundation offers vital services such as free testing, education, financial assistance, and patient advocacy. These programs aim to enhance healthcare access and improve the quality of life for those living with this challenging condition.

Through community outreach, support groups, and tailored assistance, the foundation empowers patients to navigate the complexities of sickle cell disease with confidence and hope. Your participation in this event helps sustain their mission, bringing essential resources and care to those who need it most.

The Youth Ministry Division at United T.E.A.M. Initiatives is a faith-based program supporting at-risk youth in Spartanburg County. We provide a safe space for weekly gatherings where young people can grow, learn, and connect. Each session includes meaningful discussions on topics like peer pressure and conflict resolution, along with inspiring guest speakers and a warm meal.

In addition to weekly meetings, we host bi-monthly outings and offer one-on-one mentorship to empower youth with life skills, confidence, and a sense of purpose. Your support helps us create a community where these young individuals can thrive and build brighter futures.

The USC Upstate Foundation is dedicated to transforming lives and communities through education and opportunity. By funding scholarships, innovative programs, and state-of-the-art facilities, the foundation ensures that students at USC Upstate have access to resources that inspire success and foster growth. Every contribution helps create a brighter future for students and the communities they will serve.

Through strategic investments in academics, athletics, and campus life, the foundation strengthens the university's mission of excellence and engagement. Your support of this event fuels these transformative efforts, empowering the next generation of leaders and changemakers.
