From staff reports
In August, 100 Women Who Care made its quarterly donation to a nonprofit organization that is a hidden secret, definitely under the radar.
The group donated to The Complete Student (TCS), a local middle/high school accredited by the S.C. Independent School Association with a project-based curriculum. The campus is located just off Ribaut Road, on Southside Blvd.
The goal of TCS is to ensure that all students have the opportunity to engage in a challenging and enriching curriculum. The school strives to increase a student’s understanding, their skill development, and empathy, all while guiding each student towards the post-graduation path that is best for them.
The $11,400 that was raised and donated will be used to build a woodworking program on their campus, empowering children to graduate with a practical, hands-on skills, confidence, and a sense of accomplishment that they will carry with them long after graduation. The benefits of the program will extend through the community exponentially as the students share their new skills with family, friends and on the job.
The check presentation was made by 100 Women Who Care leader, Laura Riski on August 19 to Blaire Lent, founder of TCS.
100 Women Who Care has now donated more than $500,000 to nonprofit organizations in Northern Beaufort County. For more information about 100 Women Who Care, visit www.100wwcbeaufort.org. To learn more about The Complete Student, visit www.thecompletestudent.com.
