Across North and South Carolina, our BHG teams are reflecting the spirit of Thanksgiving through service, compassion and connection.

🧡 Aiken, SC
We’re grateful for Program Director Cassidy Jones and the Aiken team, who organized a food drive to support patients affected by SNAP benefit cuts. Their December blanket drive continues that commitment to meeting essential needs with dignity and care.

🧡 Asheville, NC
A big thank you to Lending A Wynning Hand for hosting their annual Thanksgiving meal and providing “cold weather care” bags. For three years, this partnership has shown what community support can mean for people in recovery. As Regional Director Nicole Ross shared, “We are absolutely so blessed to have community partners like this.”

🧡 Clyde, NC
Our heartfelt thanks to Food Connection, who has provided hot meals every morning since Hurricane Helene. Their consistency - and our Clyde staff’s dedication to picking up meals at 4:30 AM - reminds us that simple acts of care can offer hope during challenging times.

🧡 North Charleston, SC
And we are proud of our Charleston team for representing BHG at the VA Medical Center’s caregiver outreach event, supporting veterans and the people who care for them.

As we enter the Thanksgiving holiday, we’re grateful for our staff, our community partners and the patients who trust us with their care.
