ABOUT US

Bright Lights Greenville aims to help those experiencing homelessness in our area of Greenville, SC

by providing kits filled with supplies that help to meet basic hygiene needs. 

For many years, our family filled small toiletry bags to give to individuals whom we would regularly see on our drive to and from school. During the COVID 19 pandemic, we sat down as a family and thought about how we could do more with the collection of bags that we kept in our car. This led to us reaching out to the Pastor of Triune Mercy Center and the Site Coordinator at Catholic Charities in

Greenville, South Carolina, and establishing a monthly drop-off of hygiene kits.

​

In October of 2021, we received a grant from Global Youth Mobilization which allowed us to become an official 501(c)(3) organization.

It also allowed us to launch this website. 

​

Six years after starting Bright Lights Greenville, we are now providing monthly hygiene kits to three local organizations:

Triune Mercy Center, Catholic Charities of South Carolina and St. Anthony of Padua Church Outreach.

In 2024 we added Pendleton Place to our list of partners; they receive our kits bi-monthly.

We have raised over $25k for those experiencing homelessness,

and we have distributed over 10,000 hygiene kits to our partner organizations.​
