End of Year Overview 

It's our goal for each child to have a stable home environment and a bright future. Because of your support this past fiscal year, our Assessment Center, Smith House, and Connections Count programs continued to protect, equip and heal vulnerable children, young adults and families. Thank you for keeping children safe and families strong.

Funding from the Jolly Foundation 

Pendleton Place received a grant from the Jolley Foundation to provide continued support for the Assessment Center. Funds will be used to improve the physical and behavioral health of children entering foster care in Greenville County. Like the Jolley Foundation, Pendleton Place is committed to researching and identifying the root cause of entry into the foster care system in Greenville. This support from the Jolley Foundation will help Pendleton Place protect, equip, and heal foster care children and families impacted by abuse and neglect.
Pizza Professionals

We are now pizza professionals thanks to Antonio's Pizza and Pasta! The pizzeria invited our Smith House girls to check out their kitchen for a pizza-making class. All the girls were able to make a personalized pizza with their favorite toppings. Thank you for teaching the girls how to make the perfect pizza!

For the month of August, tune into WMYA MY40 each Sunday at 9:30 am to see Pendleton Place's very own, Jed Dews!
