You can be involved with the largest litter prevention and beautification effort ever. From March through May, join two million volunteers across the country and help clean up your community!

The Great American Cleanup is an annual, nationwide, community improvement campaign started by Keep America Beautiful in 1999. Each April, thousands of Georgian's celebrate Keep Georgia Beautiful Month by cleaning, restoring, and beautifying their communities as part of the Cleanup. Check for activities in your area.

This year we are proud to announce a statewide partnership between Keep Georgia Beautiful and Georgia Distric Kiwanis International for the Green is the New Red, White and Blue community service campaign. For more information on the Kiwanis and KGB partnership click here!
