For you out-of-towners, Hands on Greenville (or HOG Day) is Greenville County’s premier platform for volunteering and community service. One day a year, the United Way of Greenville coordinates hoards of volunteers to complete service projects across the county. This year, 6,817 volunteers on 135 teams did everything from landscaping to painting to repair work to clean up efforts. Our team, PULSE and Kiwanis Main Street Young Professionals, spent the morning performing projects at Greenbrier Elementary School where we weeded flower gardens, arranged planters, painted playground equipment and mulched gardens and flower beds.
I’m so proud to call Greenville my home. HOG Day is just another great testament to the type of community we live in. With that, I encourage each and every one of you to dedicate your time to making the community you live in a better place.
