We are Advocacy Q+, a newly incorporated nonprofit awaiting our 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status (anticipated February 2025). As a trailblazing research-to-action organization, we transform scientific insights into tangible solutions to address health, housing, and food disparities across South Carolina. But we’re more than just research—we’re also a hub for educational outreach and inclusive literature access.<h3>What We Do</h3><ul><li style="box-sizing:inherit">Research & Action: We integrate genomic biomarker assessments with state-specific disparity analysis to inform agencies like DHEC, FEMA, and other stakeholders working to resolve systemic inequities.</li><li style="box-sizing:inherit">Education & Empowerment: Our Education Seminar Series bridges gaps for underrepresented communities with ESL classes, adult skills training, job preparation workshops, and more.</li><li style="box-sizing:inherit">Accessible Knowledge: Our library will protect access to banned books and highlight diverse authors, fostering cross-cultural understanding and dialogue.</li></ul><h3>Why We Need Your Help</h3>While we gear up to secure grants in 2025, we urgently need $50,000 to ensure we can build a solid foundation. Here’s how your support will make an immediate impact:<ol><li style="box-sizing:inherit">Technology for Impactful Research We’re developing an action report for the SC Justice Housing Coalition, analyzing housing disparity data provided by the ACLU-SC. To ensure the highest quality insights, we need computers capable of processing large datasets and conducting rigorous statistical testing.</li><li style="box-sizing:inherit">Essential Educational Equipment Our hybrid Education Seminar Series requires a projector and screen to maintain mobility, allowing us to bring impactful learning opportunities to communities across the state. Currently, we’re borrowing equipment—a short-term fix that limits our potential reach.</li><li style="box-sizing:inherit">Support for Leadership & Growth Advocacy Q+ is powered by passion. Our founder and president is working tirelessly to process data, draft reports, and simultaneously launch our core programs. A portion of these funds will go toward an initial salary to sustain the effort and focus required to bring our mission to life.</li></ol><h3>What Your Support Means</h3>Your donation isn’t just funding equipment or salaries—it’s investing in equity for all. With your help, Advocacy Q+ can survive this critical startup phase, expand our reach, and make meaningful, lasting change for marginalized and underserved communities across South Carolina.<h3>Our Vision for the Future</h3>In 2025, we plan to submit several major grants, including an R01 application to the National Institute on Environmental Health Sciences. By contributing now, you’ll help lay the groundwork for this future success. Together, we can create a state where everyone, regardless of background, has the opportunity to thrive.Let’s build a more equitable South Carolina, one step at a time.
