KEEP MIDLAND BEAUTIFUL

Keep Midland Beautiful is a local non-profit organization dedicated to the improvement of Midland through litter prevention, waste reduction, beautification and environmental education. As such, we are heavily dependent upon private contributions from citizens like you.

Your donation of at least $35.00 will provide continued education in our schools, informative workshops for adults in the areas of composting, tree care and community involvement. We will be able to further our Adopt-A-Spot program keeping litter off our streets and rights-of-way. Your financial contribution will enable us to expand our partnerships, enabling us to reach an even larger population than every before.

Membership entitles you to a discount card honored by local nurseries, a bi-monthly newsletter full of valuable information, our Annual Report and an invitation to our annual appreciation event, and other recognition that varies with membership level (see below for details).

Keep Midland Beautiful has been recognized as the standard bearer for other Keep Texas Beautiful and Keep America Beautiful affiliates.
