Rocket Pest Control Co-Hosts Event Supporting Children in Foster Care

CHARLESTON, S.C. - Rocket Pest Control recently  partnered with The Bair Foundation to host a Back to School Splash Bash for foster children and their families in the Charleston area. The event aimed to provide a fun and supportive sendoff into the new school year, while also raising awareness about the needs of foster children in the local community.

With more than 250,000 children entering foster care each year, Rocket Pest Control is committed to doing its part to give back. The Splash Bash featured an exciting day of activities, including a water slide, foam pit, face painting, volleyball, games, crafts, delicious food, and music. The event wouldn’t have been possible without the help of volunteers and the support of generous sponsors: Charleston area Food Lion Stores, Kona Ice of Charleston, and Foam Zone Party. Their contributions helped make the day a memorable one for both the children and their families.

“We wanted to create an unforgettable day for these children, who have already faced so many challenges in their lives,” said Cherissa Vandergriff, chief marketing officer, Rocket Pest Control. “The joy and laughter we saw at the Splash Bash truly warmed our hearts, and we’re so grateful to our sponsors and the local community for helping us make it happen.”

The Bair Foundation, a therapeutic foster care agency, has been serving vulnerable youth for over 50 years. Many of the children they care for have experienced abuse, trauma, and neglect, and the organization works tirelessly to bring about meaningful change in their lives. 

In addition, Rocket’s Charleston branch is now an official drop-off location for donations to support The Bair Foundation and the children they serve. We encourage the community to join us in supporting this incredible cause. For more information on how to donate or get involved, please email cherissa@gorocketpest.com.

“We are deeply thankful to everyone who came out to support The Bair Foundation and help create a day of joy for these foster children,” said Vandergriff.  “Together, we can continue to make a difference in the lives of children in need.”
