  • Volunteer Guidelines

    In an effort to keep our volunteers as safe as possible, we have established a list of guidelines that all volunteers will be required to follow while volunteering with Keep North Charleston Beautiful. Please be sure to read through these guidelines thoroughly before checking the box to indicate that you have read and agree to the guidelines.

  • At this time, all volunteers will be scheduled to work in the Park Circle Butterfly Garden and in the gardens on the grounds of the Felix Davis Community Center. We are not currently scheduling volunteers for indoor activities.

    Tasks will include: weeding, painting, planting flowers, raking out pine straw, installing cardboard and newspaper as weed barrier, installing new pine straw, deadheading and cutting back plants, and other general landscaping tasks.

    • All volunteers must be at least 16-years-old. Volunteers under the age of 16 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
    • Volunteers will be scheduled to work in shifts, in small groups of up to 10 people. Larger groups will be scheduled on a case by case basis. If you would like to be assigned to work in an area away from other volunteers, please let KNCB staff know when signing up for your volunteer shift.
    • KNCB staff are following CDC recommendations regarding face masks. Face masks are optional while working outside. Due to the small size of the KNCB office, and out of respect for some of our high risk volunteers, anyone entering the KNCB office will be required to wear a face mask while inside. Volunteers will be required to bring their own face coverings with them when volunteering.
    • KNCB will provide any necessary tools and disposable vinyl goves. If a volunteer would like to use their own garden gloves, they should bring them from home.
    • Access to the KNCB office will be limited. KNCB staff will provide orientation outside of the KNCB office, and any items needed by volunteers will be brought outside to them by KNCB staff.

  • KNCB Volunteer Liability Release

    All volunteers must read the liability release and sign in the box below.
