Free Transportation for the Unhoused

Lowcountry Lighthouse aims to provide free rides to approved locations for unhoused residents of Charleston, SC and the surrounding areas. We are active from October 15 until February 15.

You may request 2 rides a month from one of our volunteer Ship Captains to the following places:

  • job interview
  • laundromat
  • post office or library
  • food bank
  • government office
  • warming shelter
  • Availability is limited, and there is no guarantee a Ship Captain will be available to fulfill your request. If you need to get somewhere that is not on the approved list, please feel free to contact us to explain. Sometimes we can honor special requests.

    Contact us to request a free ride or to inquire about volunteering as a Ship Captain!
