The Orangeburg County Chamber of Commerce has partnered with County Councilwoman Latisha Walker and the Tiffany Grant Foundation to expand their “Blessing Boxes” initiative.
Councilwoman Walker, through her foundation, supports the needs of local homeless students, indigent college students, and families struggling to meet their basic needs. It would be a tremendous help if your organization and employees donated to this project by accepting and filling one of the blessing boxes.
