Our History
The Abney Foundation was
originally formed in 1957 by Mrs. Susie Mathews Abney, widow of Mr. John Pope
Abney, the founder of Abney Mills in Greenwood, SC. At that time, five
trustees, including Mrs. Abney, were appointed to govern the trust. The
principal office was located in Greenwood, SC. At her death in 1969, Mrs. Abney
left a sizeable bequest to The Abney Foundation.
The mission of The Abney
Foundation is to aid organizations that are operated exclusively for
educational, religious, charitable, scientific, and literary purposes. The
highest priority is placed on higher education.
To date a total of $50,862,823
has been awarded to various organizations.
