We Proudly Serve the Pee Dee Region
|
In 2006, the Eastern Carolina Community Foundation was founded to strengthen the Pee Dee region through philanthropy. Its goal is to build permanent endowment funds to assist citizens to improve the quality of their lives - both now and in the future. The Foundation serves a geographic area that covers 15% of the state of South Carolina –and one of the most needy. We carry out our mission by connecting people with opportunities to make a positive difference through grant making and support of effective nonprofits. We are the trusted steward of 14 individual funds valued at over $2 million established by area families, private foundations, and philanthropists. We also work with two affiliate giving circles representing women and young professionals from throughout the region. We carefully invest these funds using income generated from interest and administrative fees to make grants that strengthen organizations throughout the Pee Dee and beyond. For Good. For Ever.
Community foundations operate in perpetuity. Gifts made to the Eastern Carolina Community will continue to grow and provide resources for our community far into the future.
