SC Appleseed

SC Appleseed fights for low income South Carolinians to overcome social, economic and legal injustice.

SC Appleseed exists at the intersection of SC communities, the statehouse and the courthouse. For us, "poverty" is not just a buzzword-it is real men, women and children in South Carolina who are hungry, homeless, or without healthcare. The issues they face are not isolated incidents, but systemic problems. With YOUR help, SC Appleseed is committed to fighting for solutions. By working to educate community members and reform public policy, SC Appleseed works to lift people out of poverty. We can only succeed with support from partners like YOU.

Testimonials

We've been able, in the name of justice, to make the change that is needed to improve the lives of those that we work with, and that sometimes we work for, so that people have the opportunity to live their best life and to make this world a better place. - Sue Berkowitz, Director of Policy & former Director

The work that Appleseed does is so important because these are issues that affect hundreds of thousands of people in South Carolina, if not millions, but yet, there's only in many cases one collective voice on their behalf… The work that Sue and the team at Appleseed have done over the last 45 years is breathtaking. It's amazing. - Former Senator Joel Lourie
