“For nearly 32 years, Palmetto Community Care has made it our mission to assist those living with HIV and AIDS by providing a full spectrum of compassionate care and supportive services while busting myths, breaking down barriers, and inspiring hope. We are constantly working toward ending the HIV epidemic through increased HIV testing, prevention, and education. Last year our case managers had over 10,000 contacts with clients. They assisted 496 people in finding stable housing, 519 in finding oral or primary health care, and 441 with emergency financial assistance and food bank-delivered meals. We also paid more than $3.5 million for life-saving medications and $1 million to provide health insurance for our clients. Those are just a few examples of what it means when we say, “Drink Beer. Do Good.” Charleston Beerfest is our primary fundraiser in helping us ensure that no one living with HIV or AIDS should go without medical care, everyday resources, and emotional support.” said Bradley Childs, Chief Executive Officer of Palmetto Community Care.
