BH Charitable Foundation

he Berkeley Hall Charitable Foundation is excited to announce a new Matching Funds opportunity from our Anonymous Donor. Thanks to YOU, our Berkeley Hall members, we’ve been able to make a real difference in our greater Bluffton community, and the Matching Funds Campaign will provide up to $50,000 in matching funds to donations made by ALL SUPPORTERS of the charitable foundation. This special campaign runs through the end of 2022, and any increases in contributions relative to last year will be matched in kind. “Thanks to the great success of BHCF’s New Supporter Campaign, our Anonymous Donor has decided to carry forward our New Matching Funds Campaign to the end of 2022,” said John Kourakos, BHCF Chair.

This incredible Matching Funds opportunity offered by our Anonymous Donor is a remarkable philanthropic gift for which we are deeply thankful. – John Kourakos, BHCF Chair

So, if you contributed $500 last year, and this year you contribute $1,000 our Anonymous Donor will match the additional $500, for a total donation of $1,500. ($500 +$500 + $500 match) “This incredible Matching Funds opportunity offered by our Anonymous Donor is a remarkable philanthropic gift for which we are deeply thankful” added Kourakos. This gives us the ability to make an even bigger difference in the lives of those who need it most – funding much-needed grants to help address hunger, housing, medical, and other important needs – right here in the Bluffton community.”

Your participation has provided the BHCF with the means to truly make a difference in our greater community. Of each dollar raised, 95% is allocated to our charities.
