Palmetto Place is a non-profit organization whose mission is to “provide a safe and supportive environment for children and teens who have faced abuse, abandonment, neglect and/or homelessness.”
The proceeds from Home in the Midlands will benefit Palmetto Place as they provide a variety of the vital services and resources needed to care for and support homeless or unaccompanied youth ranging in age from 12-21.
Guests at the benefit expo and concert will hear one young man's, Alex Hines, story of Palmetto Place becoming his home and changing his life for the better.
By hosting a booth in the Business Expo or by becoming a stage sponsor you can be a part of a story like his! Contributions to the event will give business owners the opportunity to meet community members, and kids like Alex an opportunity to thrive.
Just by purchasing a ticket to join the fun on Friday evening you’ll be helping Palmetto Place carry on its tradition of assisting youth in South Carolina build a better life.
