Community Foundation of the Lowcountry
In 1994, a group of visionary Lowcountry community leaders recognized the need to create a community foundation. Through the sale of the nonprofit Hilton Head Hospital, Hilton Head Island Foundation, Inc. was born, with a mission to provide philanthropic leadership to a growing community. In 2001, our service area expanded to include northern Beaufort County, Colleton, Hampton and Jasper Counties.
With more than $125 million invested in the Lowcountry area since 1994, Community Foundation of the Lowcountry is the largest source of unrestricted philanthropic resources dedicated to Beaufort, Colleton, Hampton and Jasper Counties. We provide donors and nonprofits the steadfast philanthropic leadership to transform, empower and enhance the communities we serve.
Mission: Strengthening community by connecting people, resources, and needs.
Purpose: Community Foundation of the Lowcountry is dedicated to helping donors, nonprofit organizations and other community members make a difference in the lives of Lowcountry citizens. Our positive impact is achieved by bringing together financial resources, knowledge and collaborative networks to serve community needs.
The Amazing Grace Sulak Scholarship Fund was established in 2017 in memory of Grace Sulak by her family. The mission of the scholarship fund is to provide annual scholarship awards to assist qualified students who are pursuing a post-secondary education.
