"Bags of Gold" were distributed at the banquet. 

Each attendee was given 10 one dollar gold coins with the instruction to match this gift and give it to a favorite charity.  Each table featured two local non-profits "wishes" from our Charity Wish List program, which is on our website.  Everyone was asked to consider these organizations when granting their gift.

This was a huge success!  Here are some of our first comments received.  Please e-mail your comments to dlewis-wcf@sc.rr.com.


Dear Jonathan,

Just a short note to express our appreciation for such a lovely evening at the awards banquet.  The Waccamaw Community Foundation truly makes a difference in the lives of many.  The Community Wish List on each table was a wonderful and inspirational idea.  We have included with this letter $300 to be given to the Associated Charities of Myrtle Beach, Inc. to cover the cost of their winter undergarment give-away program.

Once again, thank you for all you do.

Beth and Nancy
