Together, she and Bob decided to bring the family’s real estate expertise to the nonprofit arena, leading to the formation of the Humanities Foundation. The mission of Humanities Foundation is a multifaceted approach to addressing critical housing and community needs. The foundation's dedication to developing highquality affordable and workforce housing directly tackles the pressing issue of housing affordability, providing individuals and families with secure, safe, and affordable homes, which is essential for community stability. Over 30 years, Humanities Foundation has built more than 2,500 apartments for low- to moderate-income individuals and families. The organization specializes in environmentally-sustainable housing that fits into the fabric of each neighborhood. Apartment communities have expanded statewide in South Carolina, Georgia, Virginia, and Louisiana. Humanities Foundation is currently revitalizing the historic Henry P.

Last year, in all 10 counties, we distributed more than 39 million pounds of food, of which 65% was protein, produce, and dairy products, especially in harder to reach rural communities. Approximately 50% of the people we serve are children and seniors. We partner with schools to provide The Lowcountry Food Bank partners with local schools to provide School Markets that allow students and their families to select food items to take home; BackPack Buddies which fills meal gaps on weekends and Kids Café and summer feeding programs. 64 | CharlestonLivingMag.com
