What We Do

Since 2018, we have brought smiles to many children and adults at community events, private parties, schools, parks, churches, courthouse, community centers, and businesses. We made sure that we carried on this tradition even when Covid hit.

Our Mission

Scotty D Charities, Inc strives to provide a little hope and magic in the lives of children and adults who need to believe in something positive and good. Scotty D. Charities, Inc is funded by charitable organizations and volunteers, which together supports our local community with enrichment.

“The greatness of a community is most accurately measured by the compassionate actions of it’s members.”

— Coretta Scott King
