Disaster Relief – Emergency Food Response

The Spartanburg County Disaster Relief Fund provides grants to nonprofit organizations providing direct assistance to residents for relief, recovery, and rebuilding due to natural or man-made disasters.

The Spartanburg County Foundation is taking immediate action to activate the Spartanburg County Disaster Relief Fund for emergency food response.

We are facing an urgent need. With the suspension of SNAP benefits set for November 1, 2025, more than 17,000 Spartanburg County households will struggle to afford basic groceries, baby formula, and other essentials. While philanthropy alone cannot replace this funding, we are seeking to fill temporary emergency gaps in anticipation of a more permanent and sustainable solution.

This special activation will provide critical support to food banks and community centers located in Spartanburg County, ensuring that families and individuals have access to food. We find ourselves in uncertain times, but we look to the strength and generosity of our community as we continue our mission of improving the lives of all Spartanburg County residents.

NONPROFITS PROVIDING FOOD ASSISTANCE/SUPPORT DURING THIS TIME MAY APPLY FOR FUNDS USING THE APPLICATION BELOW.

Many nonprofit organizations serving Spartanburg County residents are responding to urgent needs for food assistance. These organizations may apply to the Spartanburg County Foundation’s Disaster Relief Fund.
