Acres Rescue and the 9/11 Heroes Run have been selected as the April Give Back Grant Winners, and Beyond BASIC and Dorchester Paws have been selected as the May Give Back Grant winners.  The Give Back Grant program was initiated in 2016 and demonstrates “LimRic Pride” where the company donates a $500 grant each to two selected nonprofit organizations every month.

Since 2010 H.O.P.E. Acres Rescue has been on a mission to rescue, rehabilitate, and provide a safe haven for equines in need to live out healthy, happy, and peaceful lives. Every horse they have taken in has lived on their farm until such time the horse is rehabilitated and adopted to an approved family. The entire staff and board are volunteers, taking care of as many as 24 horses at any given time. Learn how to volunteer and donate at www.hopeacresrescue.org.

The 8^th Annual Charleston 9/11 Heroes Run will be held Saturday, September 7, 2019 on Daniel Island.

Since 2012, the Charleston 9/11 Heroes Run has donated more than $118,000 to local heroes through partnerships with 12 different first responder organizations as well as the Travis Manion Foundation, which empowers veterans and families of fallen heroes to develop character in future generations.
