Our Mission
The Scottish Cultural Outreach Foundation (formally Highland Echoes) is a non-profit charity dedicated to preserving Scottish heritage and culture through performing arts and various educational programs. Committed to educating the younger population, we provide programs needed to explore and discover the fascinating and beautiful components that make up Scottish culture.
The youth is our future...

Our Vision
The Scottish Cultural Outreach Foundation is a North Carolina-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization whose twofold vision is that (1) all children have the opportunity to engage in learning about Scotland's heritage and migration impact through quality educational and cultural programing, and (2) that the arts community has the opportunity to recognize and engage in the traditional Scottish cultural arts.

Charity For Education
We work directly with educational institutions and state curriculum requirements to include Scottish heritage as a part of student content.

Support for Clans
We provide support for Clans who want to nurture the Scottish heritage and family connection with their children and grandchildren.

Performing Arts
We support performing arts programs that inspire the youth to get involved in the Scottish cultural arts.

Our Projects
