Keep Greenville County Beautiful, Litter Ends Here, and PalmettoPride were honored to have Lt. Governor Pamela Evette and her son join us for a litter cleanup in Greenville. We hope this effort inspires others to "Grab A Bag" and volunteer!

We couldn't have done it without wonderful employees at Duke Energy who joined the effort and helped make the cleanup a huge success!

In just a few hours, this group was able to remove 49 bags of trash weighing in at 1,280 pounds, as well as 38 tires!

Volunteers from Penske Truck Rental, Lead Academy, and Momentum Bike Clubs came together to help clean up Stables Road. The group removed 79 bags of trash, 3 TVs, and 7 tires. We are so grateful to the volunteers who helped with this cleanup.

We are so proud of Greenville County 5th Grader Venus Marin, who is the state winner of the Governor’s Art Contest on Litter Prevention!

Venus's artwork, titled "Litter Trashes Everyone", was chosen from hundreds of entries across the state. Her artwork depicts our watershed covered in trash. Venus clearly portrays that hope is not lost, because of a young person on a boat removing the litter. It's a powerful reminder of the importance of keeping our environment clean.

Venus was honored at her school by PalmettoPride and Greenville County Council Member Butch Kirven.
