South Carolina experienced a “1000 year flood” on October 5th that lasted several days. Thousands of families lost EVERYTHING. Homes were destroyed, families had to evacuate immediately, total devastation occurred everywhere in Columbia, SC. Through several contacts with churches and shelters, the Hewitt Foundation was able to speak with Brennen Elementary about donating 105 Build-A-Bear stuffed animals to the students impacted from the flood. The school accepted the generosity of the Hewitt Foundation and the stuffed animals will soon be delivered to the Guidance Counselors and Principal for distribution to the students.
