One reel can’t tell it all. 💙

As we close out the FY26 chapter, we're looking back at the people, moments, and milestones that made this year so meaningful.

Across South Carolina, our corps members made a difference in their classrooms, schools, and communities. We're proud to celebrate their impact and thankful for the alumni, partners, donors, and supporters who continue to stand alongside us in this work.

This is just a glimpse of what we accomplished together! Explore the full story in our FY26 Annual Report—link in our bio.

Thank you to everyone who was part of the journey. We’re grateful for all we accomplished together and excited for what’s ahead. 💙

Well everyone, that’s a wrap! 🎉

Our corps members officially completed summer practicum last Friday, and what a journey it was! Over the past several weeks, they were coached by some of the best MDLDs around 😉, worked alongside veteran teachers to learn the ins and outs of the classroom, led lessons, tried new strategies, solved problems in real time, and grew more confident each day!

One of the best parts of this summer was watching this cohort become a true community. They cheered each other on, stepped in to help when things got hard, celebrated the wins, and shared plenty of laughs along the way. Check out the connection evolve from slide 20 to back to slide 1 ♥️.

We couldn’t be more proud of the commitment they showed. From early mornings and late nights spent lesson planning to the relationships they built with students and each other, they put in the work. As they head into their first year in classrooms across South Carolina, we know they’re bringing more than lesson plans. They’re bringing resilience, purpose, and joy to each of their communities.

Congratulations, Corps 2026! We can’t wait to see the impact you’ll make. Enjoy July, it’s off to the races in August! 😂

Each week, we recognize one Corps Member with our R.I.C.E. Award, which stands for Rooted in Impact, Cultivating Excellence. We also honor this individual as “This Week’s Carolina Gold”—a symbol of value, resilience, and lasting impact, inspired by the historic rice that helped shape our region.

This week, we are proud to recognize Natalie Peyton as our R.I.C.E. Award recipient and Carolina Gold. Through her commitment, positive presence, and the leadership she has already demonstrated, Natalie embodies the spirit of this recognition. Her dedication to growth, service, and excellence has made a meaningful impact on those around her, and we are excited to celebrate all that she has accomplished and will continue to achieve.
