About Us

New Morning Foundation is a non-partisan private-sector long-term initiative to improve young people’s reproductive health education, counseling, and clinical services throughout South Carolina.

Our mission is to decrease the number of unintended pregnancies among people under 30 and limit the spread of HIV/AIDS and sexually transmitted infections.

We provide funding for community-based programs that empower people under 30 to make responsible decisions.  We support advocacy groups across the state that are working to improve public policy, protect individual privacy, and lobby to protect and promote good public health policy.

In keeping with this mission, New Morning:

  • Makes grants to support educational and clinical programs that reduce unplanned births
  • Promotes medically accurate, age-appropriate reproductive health education in schools and communities
  • Provides greater access to reproductive heath counseling and clinical services
  • Encourages groups who share these values to advocate for improved reproductive health policy at the state level
  • Lobbies at the state level, and occasionally the federal level, to protect and promote good public health policy.

Public funds have seldom been enough to provide adequate services, and services are diminishing as the state makes budget cuts. New Morning Foundation provides grants and facilitates partnerships to bridge gaps and reduce the stress of getting reproductive healthcare.

New Morning Foundation aligns itself with these major medical organizations that uphold these same values:
  • American Medical Association
  • American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists
  • American Academy of Pediatrics
  • American Nurses Association
  • National Institutes of Health
  • U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
