What We Do
Our vision is for every person in South Carolina to recognize and secure legal rights. Since 1987, the South Carolina Bar Foundation has awarded more than $50 million to various law-related organizations throughout South Carolina. Today, the Bar Foundation is the only statewide funding source for the provision of civil legal aid and law-related projects. With your help, we can make more progress to advance justice in the state of South Carolina.
