The South Carolina Governor's School for the Arts and Humanities Foundation is a nonprofit organization that raises money to support the Governor's School.
The foundation uses its resources to increase access to the school for students who need financial support, aid the school's efforts to provide arts education in under-resourced counties, and bridge the gap between state funding and the unique needs of South Carolina's premier public arts school.
How You Can Make a Difference
Your tax-deductible gift to the foundation ensures that cost is not a barrier for any student who is accepted to the Governor's School, elevates the school’s learning environment, and makes our one-of-a-kind arts community possible.
Please consider making your gift today so that young artists can share their gifts for years to come.
Thank you to our partners:
This place has taught me how to be me, and how to shape myself in art. No matter where I am in life, I will be carrying a piece of Govie with me and will be constantly reminded why the arts are vital to our changing world.
