Current North Charleston High School principal Henry Darby knows, firsthand, the devastation caused by poverty. After his father died when he was just three, Darby’s mother taught him the importance of resourcefulness and a helpful attitude, despite their financial circumstances.

Recently, Darby recalled a day when his mother told him to take a piece of cloth from the dump. At first, he hesitated – he remembered the fabric being dirty and smelly – but his mother knew what to do. “I saw my mother put her hand in all that filth and gunk,” Darby remembered. “And she got that piece of cloth, took it home, boiled it in a kettle in the back yard, and made a shirt” for him to wear. And Darby wore it two or three times a week, all the way from 8th to 11th grade.
