Reader's Digest "We Hear You America" campaign visits City Hall

The Reader's Digest "We Hear You America" Tour Bus made a stop by the North Charleston City Hall on January 26 and presented Mayor Keith Summey with a "stimulus" check.

The campaign is a grassroots effort to travel to 100 cities across the United States to celebrate the Best of America and offer financial support to communities.

North Charleston was chosen as a tour stop and check recipient because of its Sustainable Urban Revitalization project, citing the renaissance of the Greater Park Circle Area as a great example of “green entrepreneurship.” 

The check was donated to The Sustainability Institute. As a partner in the project, The Sustainability Institute is instrumental in the City’s revitalization efforts and continues to empower South Carolinians to reduce their environmental footprint where they live and work.
