Our name comes from the number of rivers that flow through the geographical area we serve; the Wando River, the Cooper River, the Ashley River, and the Stono River. The inception of a river is similar to human life. “Rivers start slowly . . . quietly and learn to crawl along in meandering fashion before they take off down a hill, eventually building up to a roaring, noisy life pouring down the side of a mountain.” Our name characterizes four imaginative rivers that symbolize life enhancement and embody our vision of Enriching, Transforming, Bridging (the Gap in the lives of people), and Sustaining (their success).
