2022-2024 Strategic Plan

In November of 2021, recognizing that the Strategic Plan adopted in 2018 was, in many ways, still relevant, the Board of Directors of the Foundation engaged in a day-long strategic review work session and decided to use that plan as a basis for an update for the next three years. The three core thematic goals that will be carried over into the 2022-2024 plan focus on the Foundation’s Sustainability, Scope and Scale, and Significance.

Baumel Endowment - For Needy Dogs

The Raymond & Elizabeth Baumel and Abernathy Fund for Animal Welfare gives again....

For 40 years as owner of Sadye's, with locations first in downtown Brunswick and later on St. Simons Island, Raymond Baumel helped to advise and clothe local, fashionable women. To them, he was the arbiter of good taste, quiet elegance, and style. Many also fondly remember his wife Elizabeth "Billie" Cowen Baumel, with whom he traveled the world in the hunt for the perfect new styles and jewelry to bring back to the women of the Golden Isles. Also remembered was a succession of "Abernathy" Yorkshire Terriers - each one, in his time, a permanent fixture at Raymond's feet by his desk at the store.
