The Alston Wilkes Society Veterans Home is a valuable project that was a first in South Carolina. It has proven its worth in both our community and state. Through the efforts of the Alston Wilkes Society and the Palmetto State Base Camp, Inc., homeless veterans in South Carolina now have a stable alternative to homelessness. Beyond providing the essentials of food and shelter, the facility and its staff help to reaffirm veterans' self worth and give them a chance to contribute to the community and society overall.

There are two Alston Wilkes Society Veterans Home locations in South Carolina. The first, located in Columbia, opened its doors in November 1996 to accept the first homeless veteran. More recently the Greenville location began servicing Veterans in September of 2009. In addition to residents' rent and some financial donations from Palmetto State Base Camp, Inc., we receive federal funding from the Department of Veterans' Affairs, private donations and grants.
We appreciate ongoing support from Veterans' organizations, local businesses and private citizens. We need your help to enhance our work!
