We are absolutely thrilled to share some exciting news: Paula Harper Bethea will be our keynote speaker for this year's James F. Byrnes Foundation's June Luncheon!
Paula, a proud 1974 scholar, truly embodies the Foundation's spirit and legacy. Her journey powerfully testifies to what this community stands for. Over the years, she has remained connected meaningfully, even serving on the Foundation board and generously giving her time, energy and heart back to the community that helped shape her path.
Welcoming Paula back into this role is something really special. Her story is inspiring, uplifting, and a beautiful reminder of the Foundation's lasting impact. We can't wait to hear her speak and to come together for what promises to be a truly memorable luncheon.
We hope you're just as excited as we are! Join us for this special occasion
