Professional Recyclers of Pennsylvania is a partner of both Keep America Beautiful
and Keep Pennsylvania Beautiful
, a spin-off of the national effort. The purpose of these non-profit organizations is to create and maintain clean communities in states all across the nation, through litter prevention, waste reduction and beautification and community improvement.
Keep America Beautiful sponsors programs such as The Great American Cleanup
, Clean Sweep USA
, Graffiti Hurts
, Cigarette Litter Prevention
, Waste in Place
and Waste in the Workplace
. Keep America Beautiful has a strong network of affiliates around the country, including four right here in Pennsylvania. Those partners build on the principles set forth by KAB, and offer the same or similar programs for Pennsylvanians to get involved with. For example, while KAB promotes The Great American Cleanup, Pennsylvania offers the Great PA Cleanup
. You can find out more information on both of those events by clicking on the links at the bottom of this webpage.
KPB works with multiple state agencies, including PROP and the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation
on a variety of issues and programs to promote and protect the state's natural and community environments. Those programs are listed on the Keep Pennsylvania Beautiful website, which you can get to through the link on this page. Be sure to check out PROP's Fact Sheets
on Highway Cleanup and other trash issues.
