Connecting people with their parks

Get Involved

The parks are important to Charleston in so many ways, but they need your help. Step forward, raise your hand and become a part of something big.

As a Park Angel, there are countless ways that you can participate in your parks. Whether you organize a park work day or a neighborhood info session, or simply hand out a card or have a cup of tea with a friend to tell him or her more about the Park Angels, every contact and every conversation is a vital part of the movement to revitalize Charleston's parks. You’ll be able to share your experiences, ideas and memories with other passionate Park Angels here at our website, and as you become more and more comfortable with your wings, you will no doubt, think up ingenious ideas for spreading the word. Here are some other things you can do to get your Park Angel momentum running.
