Dear Friends and Neighbors,

Lake Toxaway Charities would like to express our sincere gratitude to you, our donors and supporters, for another astounding year of charitable giving. For over 50 years your continued support has allowed us to generously respond to the vast needs of our neighbors in Transylvania County. To date you have enabled us to provide over $7 million in grants to qualified non-profit organizations!

In 2025 we were honored to fund 55 organizations doing impressive and important work for the hungry, the homeless, those in need of healthcare, the abused, and to educational systems and programs. Our vetted agencies are committed to services that will satisfy immediate needs, but more importantly, are dedicated to helping end the cycle of poverty and disability so that individuals and families may one day live independently.

Our 2025 annual gala and sports day “Wicked” was a tremendous success, raising over $1,000,000 for our mission. Other generous contributions received through the year will define 2025 as another outstanding year and will allow us to continue to serve our communities’ needs throughout 2026 and beyond. Please mark your calendars for next year’s Gala on July 18, 2026! Additionally, consider supporting the 2025 Angel Tree Giving Program, co-sponsored by the Greystone Inn, which will provide food, clothing, and gifts to over 200 families this holiday season.

We hope you will enjoy reading this review, which describes more details about the substantial impact of your contributions. Please refer to page 11 which outlines opportunities for giving, including stock donations, qualified charitable distributions from your IRA, and estate planning. We deeply appreciate your support, which sustains our mission to assist neighbors in need. Thank you for partnering with us in fostering a culture of care and compassion.
