SC Ports dedicates a portion of its revenues to partnership projects that support local communities in which the port operates.

The Port is incredibly proud of the organizations across the state who undertake important work to better our communities.

• Applications must demonstrate a clear fit within one of the following focus areas: maritime commerce, economic development, environmental awareness, or community outreach.
