## See the work, not just the description.

Current program media and authentic history in one place.

This page brings together current Carolina Cares materials with authentic photographs, field videos, and third-party coverage from the original 2020 effort. The distinction matters: archival material is identified as archival, and current campaign visuals are presented as current program materials.

Embedded media: WACH FOX 57 - Homeless Man Receives Unexpected Surprise. Available on the canonical HTML page.

## Homeless Man Receives Unexpected Surprise

Chloe Carlson · June 25, 2020 · Updated June 26, 2020

WACH FOX 57 documented early Carolina Cares direct-aid work in Columbia during the COVID-19 pandemic. The report followed Chris Davis after job loss and homelessness and described practical assistance that included a cell phone, clothing and documents for job applications, and outreach to prospective employers. Davis later secured employment in Greenville.

**Historical context:** Carolina Cares began as a direct community-assistance effort in 2020 and is now operated as a program of The Poston Foundation.
