Our mission is to inspire the people of Charleston to connect with their parks and together create stunning public spaces and a strong community.
Parks bring people together. As Charleston grows, reclaiming, rejuvenating, nurturing, and advancing the use of public parks is of the utmost importance. A feeling of kinship and stewardship with parks creates a shared sense of place among our neighbors and fellow citizens.
The Charleston Parks Conservancy works to create, expand, sustain, and reinvigorate Charleston’s urban parks to ensure that Charleston will be a wondrous, welcoming and active place now, and for future generations.
To accomplish our goal of improving and preserving public parks, we foster partnerships throughout the Charleston area. With these resources, expert staff and a passionate corps of volunteers, the Park Angels, work side-by-side to rejuvenate parks and create opportunities for community engagement through park programs.
By rallying support and catalyzing action, the Charleston Parks Conservancy cultivates stunning city parks. We believe that high quality parks contribute to a higher quality of life, and great parks build strong communities.
