Looking for Ways to
Support the Home?

It takes a village to raise a child, and the Children’s Attention Home has many children to raise for the time they are in our care. We have a variety of ways for individuals, businesses and community groups to support our mission to provide a safe and nurturing home for our children.

Look at the many opportunities below to get connected. If you have an idea that is not on our list, please call (803) 328-8871 or email info@attentionhome.org and we’ll work together to explore new opportunities.

Current needs

Make a donation of goods to support the home

As with any home, there are certain daily essentials we must have to care for our children, such as snacks, cereal, paper products and more. While we cannot accept used items, such as clothes, toys and mattresses, we can accept many other items that are very helpful in meeting our needs!
