Lauren Hummer's Company Details
In 1855, a group of South Carolina's most distinguished citizens came together to found the South Carolina Historical Society with the goal of preserving our state's rich historical legacy for future generations. Today, the SCHS is the state's oldest and largest private repository of books, letters, journals, maps, drawings, and photographs about South Carolina history. The SCHS holdings are vast and grow constantly with the addition of materials from South Carolina's three-hundred-year history. The SCHS is a private, non-profit organization depending entirely on the generosity of its members to preserve and extend awareness of South Carolina history. We receive no local, state, or federal funding for our operations.Our mission is to expand, preserve, and make accessible our invaluable collection, and to encourage interest and pride in the rich history of our state.
