Greer Relief Partners with Greer Cultural Arts Council
2010 “Oliver” will help the hungry in the Greater Greer Area

Greer Cultural Arts
For over 80 years Greer Relief has been providing food for those in need in the Greater Greer Area.  In 2009, Greer Relief witnessed a 20% increase in the number of people needing food.  The influx of new clients has challenged food pantry which relies primarily on community food drive donations.  Knowing the great need for food support, Greer Cultural Arts Council has developed a project to assist the Greer Relief with the high demand for food.  The timing of the collaboration fell in line with the upcoming spring performance of “Oliver.” The musical is based upon the novel Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens. Oliver Twist, the protagonist of the story, is a lonely orphan boy born in the workhouse, who after the opening song, “Food, Glorious Food”, states, "Please, sir, I want some more." Robin Byouk, Greer Cultural Arts Council Supervisor, stated, “We are asking everyone who comes to the see show to please bring non-perishable food items.”  Caroline Robertson, Greer Relief Executive Director indicated, the most needed items are; peanut butter, jelly, rice, noodles and spaghetti sauce.

Oliver performances are April 16th – 18th & April 23rd – 25th.

For more information on ways to help, please contact Greer Relief at (864) 848-5355.  Greer Relief and Resources Agency, Inc. was founded in 1936 by a group of caring and concerned citizens.  The Emergency Assistance Program provides in-kind assistance, financial assistance and counseling to the needy. This program is a "hand up" not a "hand out".

Greer Relief has been assisting needy and indigent residents of Greenville & Spartanburg counties for over 75 years.  The combination of emergency assistance and one-stop access to human service agencies has provided a network of collaborators ready and willing to serve the community.  Emergency assistance is a safety net of support for those in need. Those in crisis with the threat of having nothing to eat, of losing their housing, of having their power cut off, or of needing a prescription filled are prevented from focusing on getting a job, furthering their education, or nurturing their children.  They have more immediate needs that affect their ability to make the next step. Greer Relief offers services at a very local level to individuals and families in Greer, Taylors, Duncan, Lyman, and Wellford with this evening of music, food, and a silent auction. Dance the night away and bid on everything from weekend vacations to jewelry.
