Family Connection (FC) of Greenville is a non-profit special needs support organization that helps families of children with special needs.  For example, if a family has a child with Downs Syndrome and contacts Family Connection of Greenville, FC will put them in contact with numerous families
throughout our area that have the same issues.  This family can then get first-hand advice, support, etc for the difficult issues that they face.

As a non-profit, Family Connection relies on fundraising events to secure their budget.  The main one is the Family Connection Designer Home Tour.  This year's tour includes several workshops dealing with redesigning and redecorating your home.  Please make a note of these workshops and help support a tremendous Upstate resource.  The workshops for this year are all $25, which includes lunch or dinner and is tax deductible.
