We received 90 submissions for the Thanks for Giving essay contest. As part of Philanthropy Week in the Lowcountry participants were asked to submit essays about some aspect of the community that demonstrates generosity. South Carolina Bank and Trust generously provided $5,000 in award money to be designated to charity by the finalists.
