What Matters

One hundred years from now, it will not matter what kind of car I drove, what kind of house I lived in, how much I had in my bank account, nor what my clothes looked like.  But the world may be a little better because I was important in the life of a child. 


 

Mission: 

To convene public and private partners for the purpose of making recommendations to South Carolina Key Leaders on how to support, strengthen, and build formal and informal helping systems for children who are in or are at risk of entering into state custody so that they can achieve educational success, healthy lifestyles, and the skills needed to succeed in life.


Computer Buddies, is a program which recruits and pairs technically trained mentors with foster children, in an effort to encourage their greater use of computers.

The South Carolina Department of Social Services (SCDSS) is working to place refurbished computers in the homes of foster families who have school-age foster children for the purpose of further supporting the foster child’s educational needs. This is a first step in helping foster children statewide overcome the digital divide that further impairs the educational success of foster children. Plans are to expand the use of refurbished DSS computers to foster homes statewide, for use by school-age foster children.
