Recently the viewing platform was rebuilt to allow for easier and safer access for crabbing, fishing, and enjoying the sunset. There are future plans to include improvements for kayak launches and an upcoming project to build a living shoreline system to promote oyster growth and vegetation along the marsh banks – thanks to the SIPOA Environmental Committee led by Jeff Davis, and the Seabrook Island Green Space Conservancy. .

The Backpack Buddies Seabrook Island (BPBSI) Fundraiser is off to a strong start! As you may know, Backpack Buddies directly supports children in the surrounding area who experience food insecurity by providing them with nutritious food to take home for the weekends.
Our goal this year, with your help, is an aggressive $100,000. During the school year, BPBSI will provide more than 13,000 bags of food to help children have nutritious meals over the weekend. School started on August 11, and after students are identified and parental permission is obtained, the first food delivery will take place in September. Three weeks into our fundraising campaign, with generous donations, we have achieved 64% of our total goal. We have three weeks to go, and with your help, we can get to the finish line for the upcoming school year.
We can’t do it without you—Backpack Buddies needs your help!
The Backpack Buddies Seabrook Island Annual Fundraising Campaign runs until September 11, 2026. Donating is easy by using the Backpack Buddies Seabrook Island website. Donations can be made online via PayPal, credit card, or Venmo. You can also send a check to 130 Gardners Circle PMB K, Johns Island, SC 29455.
Any amount is greatly appreciated, and just $306 will cover the costs for one child for the entire school year. You can also join many fellow Seabrookers in supporting Backpack Buddies by becoming a “Friend of Backpack Buddies Seabrook Island” with a donation of $1,000 or more.
Thank you in advance for your generosity!
