ALVIN, S.C. – The Berkeley Chamber of Commerce, community partners, service agencies, and nonprofits unveiled the third resource hub at the Alvin Recreation Center at 2191 Santee River Rd. in St. Stephen on Friday.

According to the chamber, the hub will offer two years of free Wi-Fi, telehealth services, wellness resources, and job and educational training opportunities. Additionally, the center is equipped with printers, webcams, desks, chairs, and eight new Google Chromebooks for residents.

Chamber officials said the Alvin hub aims to increase access and knowledge to services available to all residents and increase the availability of services to our rural communities.

This latest hub is part of a broader plan to establish five centers to enhance connectivity in the county’s rural areas, chamber officials said.

This project is made possible through funding from Google’s Data Center’s Impact Program and support from numerous community partners.
