Orangeburg Day of Hope Volunteer Opportunities

We need the support of dedicated volunteers to help make our July 19, 2025 event in Orangeburg a success. Opportunities include:

  • Greeting community members at the gate

  • Signing up community members for onsite services

  • Keeping the portable restroom trailers clean and stocked

  • Replenishing drink barrels with ice and beverages throughout the fairgrounds

  • Assisting with event parking

In 2023, over 4,000 community members attended the Day of Hope, and we expect an even greater turnout this year. That’s why we are starting early to spread the word on as many platforms as possible to ensure the message reaches those who need these services the most.

We can’t wait to see the community come together once again for this amazing day of hope, resources, and support. Thank you for being a part of this journey with us!

“As a retired registered nurse, I saw the need for my skill during the pandemic. I began working with Palmetto Palace as a RN vaccinator. The organization is professional, experienced, and very caring. I would highly recommend the Palmetto Palace to other professionals seeking a giving, satisfying and exciting opportunity. I really do see the need for developing health care in a mobile setting and would recommend the public utilize this organization.”
