Keep America Beautiful

Keep Columbus Beautiful, the City’s Community Improvement program and our partner Lowes is pleased to launch Litter-Free-Lawns. Homeowners, tenants and landlords are encouraged to join this effort. You can put on a mask, gloves, and grab a trash bag to begin cleaning up litter and debris from your lawn, sidewalk and street around your property. You can have some fun and use a leaf blower to blow litter into a pile and put the litter in the bag. No matter how you do it, remember to tie up the bag and place it in your City Refuse container in time for collection day. If every resident on your street participates, you will have a visually clean street every week.

Donations go toward equiping volunteers with the supplies needed to participate in clean-ups in a safe, clean and effective manor, including trash bags, litter grabbers, safety vests, gloves, sanitation, food and water, to name a few. ​ All those who participate in clean-ups will receive a free #PutnamProud T-shirt, as well as attendance at our celebration event hosted by the Biz Foundry on September 26th at 5pm. ​ We thank you for everything you do to help Keep Putnam County Beautiful!

Keep Glendale Beautiful is collaborating with the University of Utah's Bennion Center to host the annual Legacy of Lowell Service Event. This event will kick off the Keep Glendale Beautiful project by engaging the community in a neighborhood-wide cleanup event.

By partnering, we expect to have anywhere from 500-1200 volunteers. Due to COVID-19, we will be practicing physical distancing and appropriate safety precautions. There will be 300 - 400 volunteer spots with groups of 15-20 people to avoid close proximity to one another.
