Silver Crescent Foundation Details
The Silver Crescent Foundation works with manufacturing, business and education leaders across South Carolina that are committed to supporting manufacturing's continued success. Education initiatives of the Silver Crescent Foundation include: the Manufacturing Design Challenge, in which SC students in grades 6-12 compete each year; Camp Success, a week-long, summer camp held during the summer throughout SC to inspire and motivate middle and high school students to discover manufacturing as well as their own potential to succeed; Discover Manufacturing, a new, classroom-based education initiative which will be launched in 2012. This is a modified version of Camp Success and is designed to reach a larger base of students than the summer camps. The Salute to Manufacturing is the annual event to name and celebrate the recipients of the Silver Crescent Award for Manufacturing Excellence. One winner from Small, Medium, and Large manufacturing company entries is selected each year based on manufacturing practices, the company's contributions to their respective communities, sustainability practices, etc.
