For years, Holly Hill Little Theater had envisioned establishing a permanent building, a hub for theater productions and a vibrant center for community activities. Although this dream did not come to fruition, the theater’s legacy and its dedication to fostering artistic spirit will live on. Over the years, as its members began to age and younger participants became scarce, the group faced inactivity. Yet, the unwavering commitment of the group to the community remained steadfast.
In recognizing the origin of these funds — the community of Holly Hill – the remaining board members of Holly Hill Little Theater decided that the money should be re-invested in the community. They elected to donate half of their balance specifically to support the young, aspiring musicians of the Holly Hill-Roberts Middle School. The funds are earmarked to provide loaner instruments to those students who may lack the means to acquire their own, ensuring that every child has the opportunity to discover and cultivate their musical talents.

“This donation embodies the spirit of community. We are incredibly thankful to the Holly Hill Little Theater, and especially its board members, for this generous gesture. It’s heartwarming to know that our young musicians’ journey will be influenced by the legacy of a group so deeply rooted in art and community,” said Dr. Shawn Foster, Superintendent of Orangeburg County School District.
