When Carolyn Hunter graduated from a Virginia community college in
1977 and began working on a McDonald’s grill, she could not have imagined that
she would someday own 3 McDonalds locations. Now, as a member of the TTC Foundation Board of Trustees and donor of
the college’s first $1 Million pledge, she keeps finding new ways to support
the college.
Her latest philanthropic venture, Sissy’s Closet, is one of
them. “Where upscale meets resale,” Sissy’s Closet is a retail store in Goose Creek that sells new and gently used ladies
clothing and accessories. The shop is named for Rachel Thompson, Carolyn’s late mother, who was affectionately known as Sissy and instilled in Carolyn a sense of determination and perseverance.
All proceeds from Sissy’s Closet benefit Trident Technical College Foundation, Ronald McDonald House of Charleston, and Teacher’s Supply Closet. Their mission is to raise money for these charities, but also provide opportunities for volunteerism and interaction, making our communities a better place for families and neighbors.
