A lowcountry homeless shelter is seeing a major increase in people, due to the ongoing recession. The Palmetto house in Summerville, not only provides meals, clothing, and shelter for the homeless, but it also provides resume,G.E.D, and job placement assistance.
With the recession, officials say they are serving double the number of people they served this time last year. They now serve one hundred people per day. That's about three-thousand per month, and thirty-six thousand per year.
Right now the shelter has about a fourty-five thousand dollar shortfall in their drive to help those in need. The group welcomes donations, if you would like to make a donation, follow the link below.
