Our History

Founded in 1994

Hands of Hope was founded in 1994 in Spartanburg, South Carolina. Since then, we have become South Carolina’s only statewide pediatric hospice and comfort care provider. Camp Hands of Hope was founded in 2000 with the mission of providing bereavement support to children experiencing loss. In 2022, we partnered with The Emerson Rose Heart Foundation to help raise support, awareness, and funds for families impacted bycongenital heart defects (CHDs).

We’ve continued to grow throughout the Southeast, offering comprehensive, compassionate care to patients in North Carolina, Georgia, and South Carolina.
