Our Mission

The mission of De Gullah SHIPP is to create a village-oriented program reinvigorating our cultural past and reconstructing the present and future of Gullah Geechee communities . We will do this by bridging generational gaps between the youth, their families, and the communities on historic St. Helena Island.
