Founders Day of Giving Challenge

Help us raise $75,000 by October 18th in honor of Sandhills School's founding in 1975! Your gift supports the life changing experience of a Sandhills School education & serves as the kickoff to our Sandhills School Annual Fund campaign in an effort to raise $175,000 by December 31st.

Our highly effective intervention requires significant resources to provide the specialized, individualized support that makes this transformation possible. Your donation is essential to ensuring we can continue empowering bright students with dyslexia in academics and in life.

As the Free Times Best of Columbia put it, “Sandhills School is not just any private school—it's one with a real mission.” 

At Sandhills, students move from feeling they can't to knowing they can.

Annual Fund FAQs

Join the 1970 Society

The 1970 Society celebrates Sandhills School’s grassroots founding. In 1970 a group of concerned parents gathered their resources and formed the Columbia Reading Foundation to help tutor their children who were very bright, but struggling to learn to read in traditional classrooms.

Become part of the legacy of generosity and support initiated by Sandhills School’s original Founders. Donors that contribute $1,970 or more each fiscal year to the Sandhills School Annual Fund will be recognized as members of the 1970 Society.
