Supporting veteran communities in South Carolina

South Carolina is home to more than 350,000 veterans and several major military installations, including Fort Jackson, Joint Base Charleston, Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island, McEntire Joint National Guard Base and Shaw Air Force Base. 

We support and align our work with respected statewide organizations such as:

• South Carolina Department of Veterans’ Affairs (SCDVA) :  The state authority responsible for veteran support, outreach, memorial programs and coordination of veteran services across South Carolina.
  South Carolina Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW South Carolina) :  A statewide network of VFW posts focused on advocacy, education, community service and remembrance activities for veterans.

These organizations help strengthen South Carolina’s commitment to honoring those who served, and our memorials reinforce that commitment by preserving their stories in durable, premium granite.
