Join our annual MLK Day of Service litter sweep and food drive at Harmon Field in Charleston. We’ll clean up the roadsides and along Gadsden Creek marsh to remove debris before it reaches the Ashley River. Meet at Harmon Field near the intersection of Hagood Avenue and Fishburne Street before getting started! Street parking is available throughout the area.

Please bring a nonperishable* food item to donate, a reusable water bottle for yourself and wear closed-toe shoes or mud boots. All supplies and instructions will be provided to conduct a litter sweep with data collection. Food donations will be delivered to One80 Place, a local shelter dedicated to preventing and ending homelessness in Charleston.

We thank our community partners in this annual effort including The Citadel Near Center for Climate Studies, Charleston Parks Conservancy, Kids Teaching Flood Resilience, Carolina Ocean Alliance and The MARSH Project.

*Recommended canned goods and other nonperishables: stock products (chicken and beef), pasta and rice (brown or white), soups, canned tuna or chicken, salad dressings, peanut butter, jelly, cereal, oatmeal, grits, coffee, etc.
