BSFBC Choir

On February 4th, the BSFBC Choir donated food for their project, Operation Feed a Family. They donated bags full of food- each bag could feed one family.


We want to thank them for their help to the community and for their continued support!

Cow Patty Bingo!

In January, UFRC hosted the Cow Patty Bingo. This special bingo begins with people "buying" square sections of a specific field. Then a cow is let loose on the field and the bingo winner is determined by what square the cow does his "business" on. Practically anything goes, including the attempt of herding the cow into your square...

This was a huge success! We raised $4000 for the Center and Terry McDowell was the lucky winner who took home $400. Way to go Terry!

Special thanks to the Chick-Fil-A Cow and Mildred the real cow!

CARE Family Forum

A CARE Family Forum occurred on January 12th, 2010. It was a great chance for adolescent moms and families to get together for amazing food and fellowship.

Check out some of the pictures below:

The Christmas Parade

The Christmas Parade took place on December 12th, 2009. It was a great chance for us to have a lot fun and embrace the Christmas spirit. Also, the parade was a great opportunity to get the word out about the Center to the community.

Thanks so much to Chuck Marshall who provided and drove the trailer during the parade!

Week of Caring

We would like to thank Spartanburg Water and Smith Drug Co. for helping us through the United Way's Week of Caring!








Thanks to Spartanburg Water, our building is looking beautiful! They pressure washed the outside of the building as well as helped us with some much needed yard work.






Smith Drug Company painted one of our classrooms that will be used for important meetings and GED tutoring. It looks like a brand new room!

Thanks again for all the help you were to us during the Week of Caring, and for your commitment to serving the families in our community!
