At Greer Relief, we believe in empowerment over dependency. Our programs offer a hand up, not just a handout. Our mission is to tackle the root causes of the challenges our neighbors face, working together to overcome obstacles and break the cycle of need.
Greer Relief and Resources Agency, Inc. offers short-term emergency assistance to neighbors in need, emphasizing support over sustenance. Our approach revolves around three key methods:
Each neighbor receives personalized attention through our case management system. This allows our team to thoroughly assess individual situations and tailor solutions for maximum effectiveness. By prioritizing confidentiality and individualized care, we aim to empower our neighbors to break free from reliance on our services.

Following assistance, Greer Relief facilitates connections with additional resources and agencies that can provide ongoing support. We maintain strict confidentiality to ensure our neighbors’ privacy and dignity are upheld throughout the process.
Reaching Every Neighbor Every Way (RENEW) is a comprehensive education, enrichment, and life skills program open to all, irrespective of their service area. RENEW is designed to enhance the well-being and nutrition of our neighbors in need by providing opportunities to acquire knowledge and develop skills that promote healthy living.
Participants in RENEW earn credits for the classes they attend, which can be redeemed for items at the RENEW Shoppe. This innovative program aims to empower individuals to make positive lifestyle changes and build a foundation for a healthier future.
RENEW is available to residents of both Greenville and Spartanburg counties, offering a range of classes on topics such as Financial Wellness, Job Skills, and Healthy Living.
