Keep Lewisville Beautiful honored by Keep America Beautiful
From staff reports
Keep Lewisville Beautiful (KLB) received Keep America Beautiful President's Circle Award during Keep America Beautiful's 60th anniversary National Conference, which recently took place in Washington, D.C. The President's Circle Award recognizes exemplary performance made by certified affiliates of the national nonprofit in building and sustaining vibrant communities.
In qualifying for a President's Circle Award, KLB has met Keep America Beautiful's standards of excellence by conducting an annual Community Appearance Index, calculating the affiliate's cost/benefit ratio, and administering activities in the areas of litter prevention, recycling and waste reduction, and beautification and community greening.
"One of Keep America Beautiful's most effective tools is the work of our grassroots network of affiliate organizations, which has an impact on millions of Americans each year," said Matt McKenna, Keep America Beautiful President and CEO. "Our affiliates are providing real solutions to local problems caused by litter, graffiti, illegal dumping and other community blight by engaging volunteers of all ages in its effort to create a vibrant community."
