Volunteers Revive Historic Hampton Cemetery | Virginia Beach News
Description
Volunteers, including Ricky Banks who canceled all his jobs to help, rallied for a much-needed cleanup at Pleasant Shade Cemetery — a historic African American site long neglected. Moved by news coverage, locals like Betts and her daughter Keisha are organizing fundraisers and volunteer drives to ensure this 20-acre landmark gets the care it deserves, while the city seeks grants to support long-term upkeep. This grassroots effort proves community love can revive history, one shovel at a time.
