The first step is a leadership buy in. We meet with school and district leaders to understand your literacy goals, current initiatives, staffing, and student needs. From there, we design a training and coaching plan that fits your school.
Costs vary based on the number of educators, training level, and coaching support needed. Our shared investment model allows us to leverage philanthropic dollars to make training accessible.
Absolutely. Many schools begin by training just one or two enthusiastic teachers.
At this time, we do not have an active volunteer program. As a small and growing organization, we do not yet have the staffing capacity or permanent office space needed to provide a meaningful volunteer experience and ensure volunteers are well-supported.
As we continue to grow, we hope to create structured volunteer opportunities that align with our mission and make the best use of community members’ time and talents.
There are still many ways to get involved! One of the most impactful ways to support our work is by hosting a third-party fundraiser on behalf of the Lowcountry Literacy Project. Whether it’s a birthday fundraiser, community event, workplace giving campaign, school fundraiser, or social gathering, your efforts can help fund teacher training scholarships and bring evidence-based literacy instruction to more students across the Lowcountry.
If you are interested in organizing a fundraiser or exploring other ways to support our mission, we’d love to hear from you.
One well-prepared teacher can impact hundreds of students over the course of a career. By investing in educators, we create sustainable change for entire schools and communities.

You can make a donation, fund a scholarship, or connect us with potential partners who share our vision.
