KEEP WALTON BEAUTIFUL (KWB)
is a non profit organization, representing Walton County Georgia, which depends on community involvement of programs for recycling, conservation, beautification and environmental education to ensure our planet's healthy future. Our program focuses on changing citizen's attitudes and behaviors toward littering and waste management KWB was organized in 1980 under the auspices of Keep America Beautiful, Inc. (KAB) and in conjunction with Keep Georgia Beautiful, Inc. (KGB). Governed by local board of directors, KWB operates through grants, private and charitable contributions, in addition to funding and support from the Walton County Board of Commissioners. KWB depends on a variety of volunteers, organizations, schools and business' throughout Walton County for assistance with several programs contributing to environmental education year round. Our purpose is to build partnerships with government, community and business leaders to develop and sustain significant reduction in litter. Together we help develop comprehensive solutions to water, recycling and other environmental issues. The quality of life in a community improves when waste and litter are properly managed making landscapes aesthetically pleasing. Thanks to environmental educational organizations such as KAB, KGB and KWB, citizens are being taught how to take actions to protect our planet's future and in the process becoming strong environmental stewards. Some of our programs include Wildflower Project, Adopt A Stream or Highway, America Recycles Day, Bring One for the Chipper, Arbor Day, Great American Cleanup, Rivers Alive and many more.
