Abilities and Assets: Building Your Organization

Organizing a community for environmental improvement takes resources - both human and monetary. The resources are out there; it's up to you to use them!

There are many people against litter, but few are willing to take the necessary steps to form an anti litter campaign or apply for awards to motivate your group or organization to continue their anti litter efforts.

Anti Litter Grants and Awards

From federal agencies to family foundations, there are many grant-funding sources available to support your anti litter campaigns and projects. All you have to do is apply!

Being recognized for your hard work is also essential to building a successful community-environment effort. Earning accolades from state and national organizations can inspire your volunteers toward bigger projects and show your benefactors and supporters how successfully their generosity was used to make a recognizable difference in your community. Don't be modest! Put your projects out there for acknowledgement.

The Keep Arkansas Beautiful Foundation

The Keep Arkansas Beautiful Foundation is a nonprofit organization that raises private contributions to give ongoing support to the Keep Arkansas Beautiful Commission above and beyond the tax dollars appropriated by the state.

Anti Litter Partners

Lone rangers don't last too long in their efforts to reduce litter. That's why it is vital to establish mutually beneficial partnerships with businesses, government agencies and organizations in your community to make it a cleaner place to live, work and play. Strategic partnerships give organizations strength for longevity and offer opportunities for creating a larger volunteer base, applying for grants together or sharing office space.

Looking for recycling grants and recycling awards? You may be surprised that a number of government organizations and agencies offer grants for recycling to help provide funding to organization wishing to undergo recycling programs.
