Mission Statement
THE PALMETTO PROJECT IS A PRIVATE, NON-PROFIT INITIATIVE TO PUT NEW AND CREATIVE IDEAS TO WORK IN SOUTH CAROLINA. LED BY THE BELIEF THAT EVERY PROBLEM FACED BY COMMUNITIES IN OUR STATE IS BEING SOLVED BY SOMEONE SOMEWHERE, WE BRING TOGETHER CITIZENS, CORPORATIONS, AND GOVERNMENTAL AGENCIES TO FIND GOOD IDEAS AND PUT THEM TO WORK STATEWIDE. SINCE WE STARTED IN 1984, WE HAVE BEEN THE CATALYST FOR OVER 240 INNOVATIVE AND CREATIVE PROJECTS. WE ARE NOT A GOVERNMENT AGENCY. WE RELY ON FOUNDATIONS AND CORPORATIONS FOR MUCH OF OUR FUNDING. HOWEVER, OUR STRONGEST SUPPORT COMES FROM THOUSANDS OF INDIVIDUAL SOUTH CAROLINIANS WHO SHARE OUR VISION OF THE STATE'S FUTURE.
