Canadian Digestive Health Foundation: An Introduction

Parent Organization: University of Alberta CDHFI aims to raise awareness and help people take control of preventative measures of digestive health disorders. Many people do not understand the negative implications that their lifestyles and diet have on their digestive health. We aim to educate students and the public the importance of the serious nature of these disorders, which are seriously undermined and not spoken much about in society. We aim to fundraise for research in possible preventative measures and for the Canadian Digestive Health Foundation.

A Brief History of Historic Camden; Part 1

Thanks to the vision of a very special group of local citizens, Historic Camden Revolutionary War Site, today a 107-acre outdoor museum complex, was one of the first major preservation initiatives in Kershaw County and the state.  The seeds for it creation emerged from a project begun by the Kershaw County Chamber of Commerce in 1966 in anticipation of the 1976 Bi-centennial.

 In 1967, Mr. and Mrs. Richard Lloyd, dedicated local philanthropists, contributed land and seed money to establish the Camden District Heritage Foundation (CDHF), a 501 (c) non-profit organization whose purpose was to preserve, restore, research and, ideally, interpret properties of historical interest in SC, particularly Kershaw County, through the purchase or donation of properties.  The original life-appointed trustees were Dick Lloyd, Lanning Risher, Henry Savage, Bill Wilson, Joe Jenkins, James Anderson, Henry Boykin, Austin Sheheen, Mary “Teene” DuVal, and Roderick Cantey.  At Mr. Lloyd’s urging the trustees agreed to acquire the site of the old Camden Magazine and related Revolutionary War-era land parcels, and, “if feasible, a portion of such holdings would be used for a museum” (1967 Deed of Trust).

The CDHF began purchasing said parcels to create a museum but quickly realized that to receive the abundant bi-centennial state and federal funds a governmental governing body was needed. The Foundation lobbied the SC Legislature to create a nine-person commission comprised of Kershaw County residents to be governed by the City of Camden, with term appointments recommended by the commission and approved by the city and the governor.  Created in 1969, the Camden Historical Commission (CHC) was designated the governing body of Historic Camden, its mission, purpose and day-to-day operations. The CDHF would serve as an advisory/funding arm to the museum that could also receive land and other relevant gifts to the museum.
