Foundation Releases Our Stories, Our Voices: 2010 Listening Sessions Summary
 Given the impact of poverty in South Carolina, in 2010 the Foundation embarked upon a new strategy to obtain an on-the-ground perspective of current poverty issues from those that experience poverty-related issues in their daily lives. Through community Listening Sessions in Allendale, Bennettsville, Greenwood and Johns Island, the Foundation listened directly to the voices of individuals and families experiencing poverty.
A summary, Our Voices, Our Stories, was assembled which highlights ideas that emerged across the four listening sessions. Read more about the Foundation's Listening Sessions.
