At the Community Foundation of the Lowcountry, our mission is strengthening community by connecting people, resources, and needs. We strive to fulfill this mission every day.

Since 1994, Community Foundation of the Lowcountry has been leading the community in making positive, sustainable change. Through our grantmaking and leadership initiatives we help foster academic achievement, build economic prosperity, achieve healthy ecosystems, encourage healthy people, support social enrichment and create vibrant neighborhoods. Our success is connected to the generosity of our donors and the expertise of our grantee organizations.

With more than $54 million invested in the Lowcountry area since 1994, the Community Foundation is the largest source of unrestricted philanthropic resources dedicated to Beaufort, Colleton, Hampton and Jasper Counties.
