Congratulations to William Cutshall and Nathan Nguyen, our two new PalmettoPride youth ambassadors from Spartanburg County!

📣 Meet our 2026–2027 Youth Ambassadors!

Selected from nearly 200 applicants across 23 counties, they’re organizing neighborhood cleanups, testing local rivers, speaking up at their town councils and the State House, and inspiring classmates to care for the places they love. Over the next year, they’ll lead cleanups, represent PalmettoPride at events across the state, and help their peers take pride in keeping South Carolina beautiful.

South Carolina gained more Gen Z residents than any other state in 2024, according to a recent analysis of Census data. The next generation is choosing to call this state home, and these 16 students are already showing what it looks like to take care of it.

Congratulations to: Natalie Abshire, Grace Brusky, Grayson Castle, William Cutshall, Hannah Dean, Safa El Kouch, Corrina Giacalone, Maeve Hardy, Emil Ince, Maddison McCree, Nathan Nguyen, Jurnee Rainey, Jamiya Smith, Mckenzy Stroede, Divija Viswabrahmana, and Olyvia Wall.

We’ll be introducing each ambassador in the coming weeks, so stay tuned to get to know them! Learn more about the program at the link in the comments.

Two weeks ago at the 2026 South Carolina Litter Summit, Keep OneSpartanburg Beautiful received the Golden Broom award recognizing Spartanburg County for outstanding participation in the SC Sweep two years in a row!
