About us
Seeking to uplift and guide our youth into a prosperous future.
Caring And Nurturing is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit seeking to uplift and guide our youth into a prosperous future.
Our mission
Our mission is to coach and develop our youth into successful business oriented colleagues. Caring and Nurturing will encourage the need to stay in school by offering mentoring programs focusing on resume writing, budgeting, how to dress for success, and overall self-motivation. We seek to empower our young people by promoting education.
What that looks like
Mentoring
Resume writing, budgeting, how to dress for success, and the self-motivation to keep going. Practical skills, taught early.
School essentials
Book bags, paper and pens put directly into the hands of students who would otherwise start the year without them.
Clothing ministry
Clothes for families who need them, offered with dignity and without a means test.
Scholarships
Direct funding for graduating seniors heading to college, awarded on merit and community service.
C.A.N. volunteers at the registration table and in the kitchen before a Thanksgiving service.
Who we serve
Easley, and wherever the need is.
C.A.N. works with students and families across Easley and the surrounding communities — families living below the South Carolina state poverty level, young people in DSS custody and in boys’ and girls’ homes, and graduating seniors heading to college.
It doesn’t matter the location.
Our sponsors are our partners
Sponsors fund the bags, the dinners, the shoes and the scholarships. Join at the Platinum Level and your organization and website are featured here, alongside the other perks that come with becoming a partner.
