About Beemok Family Foundation
The Beemok Family Foundation concentrates its giving in South Carolina, funding a small number of large gifts focused primarily on behavioral/mental health clinic operations and targeted education scholarships. Major support flows to a repeat health-care provider (Modern Minds) and to higher-education partners administering 'Meeting Street' scholarships, with an additional emphasis on capital support for an independent girls' school. The foundation favors deep, place-based investments that strengthen clinical services and expand postsecondary access for local students.

About Beemok Family Foundation
A defining feature of the Beemok Family Foundation is its sustained, large-scale support for Charleston-area behavioral health services. The foundation made three major grants to Modern Minds across 2023, 2024, and 2025, including $3,845,000 in 2024 and $3,470,000 in 2023, all for clinic operations. That repeat pattern sits alongside another core priority: Meeting Street scholarships for South Carolina students. Those scholarships appear through university-administered awards at the University of South Carolina, Clemson University, College of Charleston, Winthrop University, and Claflin University, showing a broad postsecondary access strategy rather than a single-campus relationship. The foundation also supports place-based community assets, including capital work for Ashley Hall Foundation and housing and community development through the City of Charleston. Its grantmaking is local and heavily concentrated in South Carolina, with gifts aimed at operating capacity, student aid, and select capital needs.
What Beemok Family Foundation Funds
In mental health, the foundation gave $2,287,994 in 2025 to Modern Minds for clinic operations, extending a multi-year commitment to behavioral health services in Charleston. Education is another major theme. It awarded $1,901,171 in 2025 to Various - See Stmt 18-19 Uofsc Educ for Meeting Street Scholarships, and $974,151 in 2024 to Various - See Stmt 13 Clemson Unive for the same purpose. The foundation also backs school and youth-serving institutions through capital support, including $1,000,000 in 2025 to Ashley Hall Foundation for deferred maintenance and other capital projects. Beyond that, it has funded community and specialty-service work, such as $641,442 in 2025 to Musc Foundation for Hollings Cancer Center.
How Beemok Family Foundation Gives
Typical grant size is $8,750 at the 25th percentile, $58,952 at the median, and $220,000 at the 75th percentile, which reflects a mix of smaller awards and a group of much larger commitments. The grant list shows repeated recipients across multiple years, especially Modern Minds and several Meeting Street scholarship administrators, indicating recurring support rather than one-off giving. The foundation is a family foundation, and it funds individuals through scholarship programs. Some programs are unsolicited, including the Meeting Street Scholarship and Catalyst by Beemok; the Excellence in Teaching Awards and one Meeting Street Scholarship program listing do not accept unsolicited applications.
