South Carolina National Heritage Corridor
The organization's primary mission is a grassroots initiative that advances sustainable development of natural, cultural and historic resources for enhanced quality of life and economic revitalization of communities in south carolina.
What it funded, over time
Every grant placed by its stated purpose and the recipient’s mission, by year, FY2017 to 2022.
Where the money goes
Grants by size, and the largest recipients.
| Recipient | Amount |
|---|---|
| SWEETWATER COUNTRY CLUB | $14,207 |
Does the money reach high-need areas?
Each grant placed by the hardship in its grantee’s ZIP, against the area’s typical level.
Its human-services grants (FY18–18, $180k) land where the poverty rate runs at 13%, against an area that typically sits at 13%. 28% of those dollars go to grantees based in above-average-need neighborhoods. Its grants skew toward lower-need ZIPs.

Where the work is directed
The same grants placed two ways: where each recipient sits, and where its stated purpose sends the money.
About 8% of South Carolina National Heritage Corridor’s grant dollars are earmarked for a different county than the recipient’s own address. By recipient address, 100% of the giving stays in SC; by stated purpose, 93%.
How this is measured
Who it funds again
Organizations funded in more than one year, against those funded once.

8 grantees tracked through their own filings, 2017–2025.
Each grant beside the grantee’s revenue from every source, year by year.
How this is measured
Counted here: distinct organizations funded across 2017 to 2025, not grant rows in a single year, so this will not match the grant count on the cover. 8 of the 20 grantees resolved in that span have returns of their own we could reconcile.
Each grantee is resolved to its own IRS returns. Association, dated; never a causal claim.

Co-funders
Grantmakers whose grantees overlap with this funder’s far more than size alone predicts. Closer means stronger alignment; arcs show where they also fund each other. Here they form a tightly interlocked group: most of these funders back each other's grantees too.
