History:
Caring In Time of Sorrow is a non-profit charitable organization in South Carolina. It is unique because there is not a program as such in South Carolina. Before organizing Caring In Time Of Sorrow, as a human service worker and a social work practioner, I have encountered many that did not have burial insurance for some reason or another. Some because they had pre-existing illness and the premium would have been to expensive. Some because they were born with some sort of illness, and others because they simply could not afford to pay for anything extra after paying their household expenses, medication and food for the month. After observing all of the families that I have assisted with the burial of a love one, Caring In Time of Sorrow was designed within my heart many years ago.
