After waiting many months to more safely fulfill the obligation of funds granted over 18 months ago by Republic Services, The Coastal Empire Habitat for Humanity, Inc. is announces their “Day of Service” to take place at Sharon Park in Garden City, GA on Saturday, January 15,2022. The program will begin at 9am with lunch provided prior to the conclusion of the day at 12 noon.

“We chose Dr. Martin Luther King’s Birthday to serve our Beloved Community. It is important
that we constantly remind each other that we are in this human race together, lending a hand up
to those in need and continuing to cherish the world around us,” said Zerik Samples, CEO of
The Coastal Empire Habitat for Humanity. “Thank you to Mayor Don Bethune and members of
council for truly partnering with Habitat to deliver services in Garden City. Here at Habitat, it is
not simply our mission to build homes, but to also build hope and our beloved community.”

Volunteers from Savannah State University, Georgia Southern University, local service men and
women, and elected officials will fill Sharon Park to paint an iron fence, rebuild two foot bridges,
re-paint the restrooms, revitalize the playground area, and build raised planter boxes for the
neighboring senior center. COVID-19 protocol will be followed in accordance with the CDC.
