Established by Frances P. Bunnelle in the year 2000, the Bunnelle Foundation’s mission is to improve the quality of life for Georgetown County, SC residents. Efforts are focused on Mrs. Bunnelle’s primary concerns: meeting basic human needs, addressing the root causes of poverty, preserving the environment, promoting economic vitality, and encouraging positive youth development.
In 2016, the Foundation committed to narrowing its focus in a strategy we call Education to Career or E2C. We target efforts at the intersection of youth development and economic vitality. Our grantmaking still includes all five focus areas, but special consideration is given to entities working in those two areas.
