Grant Improves Veteran Housing in South Carolina
CHEP has received a grant from the Dominion Energy Foundation to make important improvements to its veteran housing program in North Charleston. The project will repair the parking lot and replace a deteriorating privacy fence, making the property safer, more accessible, and more comfortable for the veterans who call it home during their journey toward independence.
CHEP Awarded $5,000 Grant to Improve the OUTPOST
CHEP has been awarded a $5,000 grant through the VLT Local Community Impact Grant Program to install a cooling system at the CHEP Outpost. The shopping floor and volunteer warehouse currently have no air conditioning, making summer temperatures challenging for shoppers, volunteers, and staff. This investment will create a more comfortable environment, improve the shopping experience, support volunteer recruitment and retention, and help protect donated merchandise as the Outpost continues to grow and serve the Cecil County community.
VLT Grants Invest in Housing & Education
CHEP has been awarded two $5,000 grants through the VLT Local Community Impact Grant Program to strengthen two core areas of its mission. One grant supports housing services for veterans experiencing homelessness, while the other helps expand continuing education opportunities for healthcare professionals, counselors, first responders, and other community providers. Together, these investments help strengthen both the support available to veterans and the network of professionals who serve our community.
