A Promise to Feed our Neighbors Forever.

Established in 2021, the Lowcountry Food Bank Foundation manages and invests monetary gifts, which continue to grow, and provides a dependable source of annual income to help fund feeding programs, projects, equipment, and infrastructure for Lowcountry Food Bank. The Foundation helps ensure that our neighbors who experience food insecurity in the 10 coastal counties of South Carolina will have access to food assistance both now and in the future.

Every child deserves the chance to grow, learn, and thrive without the burden of hunger. That belief led Sheila and Steve to establish Kipp Helping Kids Fund, named in honor of their grandchild, Kipp. Through the Lowcountry Food Bank Foundation, this endowment provides lasting support for childhood feeding and nutrition education programs across our 10 coastal counties
