Support the Summit

Attending and supporting the Summit is a valuable opportunity to highlight your organization, champion statewide litter prevention efforts, and engage with community leaders from across South Carolina.

Sponsors: Litter is a cost to doing business in South Carolina. With an estimated 800 million pieces of litter statewide, communities spend millions each year on cleanup and enforcement—resources that could instead support infrastructure and economic growth. In 2025, PalmettoPride volunteers generated $2,973,318 in cost avoidance by removing litter. That’s money staying in communities, not being spent cleaning them up. With your support, those savings can continue to grow—creating cleaner, more attractive places to live and work. Sponsoring the Summit also connects you with a focused, engaged audience of local leaders and decision-makers. These are the people leading cleanups, managing programs, and shaping how their communities address litter. The Summit offers hands-on workshops, panel discussions, and time for real conversations—giving sponsors a meaningful way to connect and build partnerships. Check out the sponsorship levels and contact slyles@palmettopride.org about how we can work together.

Exhibitors: A limited number of exhibitor spaces are available and will be assigned on a first-come, first-served basis. Each exhibit includes a 6-foot table, chair, black tablecloth, one complimentary registration, and your company name listed in the program. The cost for corporate exhibitors is $1,000. Nonprofits may exhibit at no additional cost with a conference registration. To reserve your space, contact sjenkins@palmettopride.org.

Thank you to our sponsors!
