2024 CAMPAIGN INFORMATION:
This year, the Big “I" of SC is thrilled to celebrate its FIFTH year of the GIVE MOVEMENT campaign, June 1-8, 2024. This campaign is led by the SC Young Agents and was first launched in 2020 to encourage Independent agencies, companies, partners and industry friends across the state to join together and GIVE back to our Trusted Choice Community Partner, Make-A-Wish South Carolina. Over the last four years, Give Movement supporters helped grant over 10 life-changing wishes for South Carolina Wish Children battling critical and life-threatening illnesses. We cannot thank you enough for your generosity and support of this very worthy cause and we hope you will help us make the biggest impact yet in our fifth year.
WHAT IS THE GIVE MOVEMENT?
The GIVE MOVEMENT is a Big I of SC statewide initiative inspired & led by our very own SC Young Agents and encourages all SC Independent agents, affiliates, and partners (customers, neighbors, and friends!) across the state to come together for one week (June 1-8, 2024) for something much bigger than a business: to give back to an incredibly inspirational and worthy cause.
DID YOU KNOW? The Give Movement is a National Big "I" Initiative.
Each participating states achievements will be tracked by the Big "I" YA on a National level and we look forward to sharing how our agents & brokers, once again, come together to make things happen!
OUR GOAL:
Our 2024 GOAL is to raise $30,000– enough to grant the wishes of FOUR SC Make-A-Wish Children with critical illnesses that are waiting for wishes.
NOW MORE THAN EVER IS WHEN WE SHOULD COME TOGETHER FOR GOOD!

IMPACT
Now, more than ever, as we navigate this uncertain time, your donation will have an incredible impact for local "Wish Kids" and their families. Each donation makes a difference, no matter how large or small and each goes directly to Make-A-Wish® of SC to help fulfill the wishes of the 500+ SC children waiting currently for their wishes to be granted. The average cost of a single wish is $7,500 and our goal is to grant as many wishes as possible.
