Upstate Homeless Coalition Establishes New Headquarters
Successful Efforts Spur Growth, Organization Holds Open House
GREENVILLE, SC - The Upstate
Homeless Coalition of South Carolina announces its relocation to
150 Executive Center Drive, Suite 212, Greenville SC 29615. Phone
and fax numbers will stay the same. This new location, off of I-385
at the Roper Mountain Road exit, is a result of the Upstate
Homeless Coalition's successful efforts to provide programs, build
affordable housing, and advocate on behalf of homeless and poverty
issues in Upstate South Carolina.
The non-profit organization will celebrate their move with an open
house on Tuesday, June 28th from 4:30 to 6:30 PM at their new
location. Refreshments, tours, and future goals of the Upstate
Homeless Coalition will be discussed during the drop-in event.
Directions From Downtown Greenville:
Take I-385 to Roper Mountain
Road Exit, turn left off ramp, take a right onto Independence Blvd.
Take a left onto Executive Drive, and take an immediate right at
the Anderson Building. The Upstate Homeless Coalition is located
in the Anderson building on the second floor.
"We're excited about our move," says Dr. Mike Chesser, Executive
Director. "We were becoming pressed for space to house supplies
and employees in our former building. The new space will enable us
to help more families and individuals affected by homelessness."
