Help Generation Charleston Adopt-A-Block
Generation Charleston has adopted a block – more specifically, Edgewood Drive.
Every third Saturday of the month from April to October, GC volunteers will engage residents on that stretch to take an active role in “maintaining their piece of Charleston,” said Megan Tarbett, co-captain of the Community Outreach Team.
The first effort is scheduled for 10 a.m. to noon April 16.
The Adopt-A-Block program is modeled after the Adopt-A-Highway program. Generation Charleston is in charge of monthly maintenance, including trash pick-up, leaf removal and larger beautification projects. Volunteers also hope to interact with residents and welcome them to participate.
To volunteer, contact Tarbett at Megan.H.Tarbett@wv.gov.
