Things to Do

Support Groups in the Upstate

Upstate Atheists

Upstate Atheists has two main priorities.  One is community service and charity work.  We have been around since May of 2012 and we have donated hundreds to March of Dimes, worked with Habitat for Humanity, adopted a highway, assisted in park clean ups, sponsored children for Christmas, etc.  Our second goal is to give support to those who may be having difficulties “coming out” to their families and assist them in the circumstances that may follow.  You can find more information at: www.upstateatheists.org and get a listing of previous and upcoming events at: www.meetup.com/Upstate-Atheists
