Honoring Service, Legacy, and Impact

The Coolie Myrick Foundation is honored to celebrate our founder as the recipient of the Darrell M. Johnson Award, presented by the Thomson-McDuffie Chamber of Commerce.

This award recognizes an individual who has made a meaningful impact on McDuffie County by pouring into the community through consistent service, faith, and leadership. That spirit of service is at the heart of everything we do: giving back, showing up, and standing in the gap where it’s needed most.

What began as a desire to give back has grown into a mission that continues to touch lives across McDuffie County. This recognition is not just a moment, it’s a reflection of the lives impacted, the seeds planted, and the work still ahead.

We are honored by this recognition and grateful for the opportunity to continue serving.
