2022 HIGHLIGHTS

GlenFlora and LSC announced a strong nonprofit partnership to continue to serve Lumberton’s seniors. GlenFlora’s legacy in the Lumberton area, along with LSC’s position as the largest nonprofit skilled nursing provider in the state, combine to continue to provide the seniors of Robeson County high-quality care.

LSC also entered into a partnership with Aston Park Health Care Center to continue to serve Asheville’s seniors. Aston Park has served the Asheville area for over 40 years, and this partnership will allow it to continue to provide the seniors of Buncombe County high-quality care.

Last year also brought big changes for the LSC New Americans Program. LSC expanded the program to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina and Salisbury, NC and also began serving refugees from Ukraine.

After receiving a $200,000 grant from the Duke Endowment in 2021 to fund a statewide family recruitment foster care team, LSC officially filled all the team vacancies and expanded recruiting efforts in 2022. So far, the team has recruited 28 new foster homes, which is 46 new foster parents.

LSC received two Lowe’s Reconstruction Grants for its disaster response program. The first grant provided $11,000 in Lowe’s gift cards and $1,540 for administrative expenses for South Carolina; and the second provided $11,000 in Lowe’s gift cards and $1,540 for administrative expenses for North Carolina. The 2022 Lowe’s Reconstruction Grant is made possible through a generous donation from Lowe’s and is designed for reconstruction material supplies in recovery and ongoing response projects across the United States and its territories. This gift has allowed National Voluntary Organizations Active in Disaster (VOAD) to offer this innovative grant project to National VOAD members.
