Mount Pleasant has been awarded the 2023 All-America city title.
This is an annual award that Mount Pleasant also won in 2010 and 2018.
The award is based on “communities that leverage civic engagement, collaboration, inclusiveness and innovation to successfully address local issues.” (From the National Civic League).
The theme for 2023 was based on youth engagement within the community. Mount Pleasant showed they exemplified this through the story of Wake Up Carolina, law enforcement youth programs, and local non-profit Just Bee.
Winning this award puts our local town on a national stage and allows for the tourism, economy, and growth to benefit from this impact.
