I absolutely love this place!…read more Renewing our Community or ROC offers members of the Rockhill community a sense of church leadership, community environment, health services and even manage to provide a thrift store! The mission is simple "Our People. Our Community. Our Responsibility. We can do this!" What more positive then people of the community uplifting other people in the community! Everyone that works here volunteers their time and you can tell they love what they are doing. Everyone here is greeted and friend and treated with so much dignity. It's such an awesome experience to see! My church Missions and Outreach group hosted a spaghetti lunch. Normally they aren't a able to do good unless a group sponsors it. But they do provide 2 snacks a day. The setup was so easy, everyone there helped us out and we were serving up warm meals in no time. It was such a rewarding experience. If you're looking for a place to volunteer or serve up meals or just spend some time with folks in the community I'd recommend heading over to the ROC!

It was created to provide community and church leadership to care for the overall health of the community by assisting those in need, moving them from hopelessness to hope. In the last five years ROC has served more than 85,000 client visits. In 2011 we were busy serving ten clients per day. Now, that number has rocketed to nearly 100 clients each day, far exceeding initial projections, and the number of daily visitors continues to grow. Located in the heart of downtown Rock Hill, ROC Central is our hub. Open 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Saturday, ROC Central relies primarily on volunteers and local donations. More than half of the people who enter ROC Central are experiencing an emergency in their lives. These are neighbors without clothes, food, housing, and/or electricity. ROC Central provides essential services including an emergency food pantry, clothes closet and transportation. To assist with power and utility shut offs we work closely with area churches, businesses, and Carolina Community Action. Many of our ROC Central clients are repeat visitors, looking for day shelter from the elements, but also guidance and long term help. As the number of daily clients rises, so do the needs. ROC Central has responded by offering several programs that provide relief and renewal.
