CHARLESTON, S.C. — Sept. 10, 2024 – SC Thrive, a nonprofit organization connecting people to crucial benefits, will celebrate one billion dollars returned to the state in the form of tax refunds and work supports at their upcoming Annual Training.  

Since its inception over 14 years ago, SC Thrive and their partners have served more than 530,000 South Carolina households by connecting those in need with food security, senior programs, healthcare access, mental wellness resources and financial support. The organization reached this one-billion-dollar milestone earlier than expected and will celebrate the accomplishment at their upcoming Annual Training September 17-18 in Columbia, SC.

CEO of SC Thrive Tricia Richardson said, “SC Thrive is on a mission to empower communities to help them reach their goals. By partnering with all the great organizations we serve, we can help individuals not just survive but thrive. We know one billion is just the start, and we are excited for the future.”

Annual Training 2024 will kick off with keynote speaker Dr. Patrick Jinks and end on day two with Dr. Malcolm Walls, Jr., with breakout sessions and plenty of networking opportunities in between. This event will equip professionals to effectively help others, celebrate SC Thrive’s partner accomplishments and spread the mission to “thrive today, thrive tomorrow, thrive together. 

Under the theme of #ThriveTogether, the conference will offer educational sessions in four tracks: Nurture Together, Healthier Together, Thriving Workplaces and Thriving Communities. Nurture Together will focus on ways to support the well-being of youth, while Healthier Together will emphasize the importance of providing holistic, patient-centered care. Thriving Workplaces will provide insight to organizational management and operations, and Thriving Communities sessions will highlight the importance of addressing the full spectrum of an individual’s needs to achieve well-being.
