HORRY COUNTY, S.C. (WMBF) - New Directions, a group of homeless shelters in the Grand Strand, is currently handling its first positive COVID-19 cases.
A sanitation technology company in Little River is stepping up to try to keep the shelters open to accept new clients.
“I ran into a young man I know is homeless,” said Cindy Bycer, Shipping Supervisor for Paradigm Convergence Technologies. “I asked him if he had a place to go. He said, ‘No, the shelters are full.’”
