Keep America Beautiful’s Great American Cleanup is the nation’s largest annual community improvement program that harnesses the power of over 4 million volunteers to build vibrant communities.  Each year over 1,200 affiliates and participating organizations engage volunteers to take action in their communities through programs that deliver positive and lasting impact through events focused on waste reduction, recycling, beautification and community greening.  In 2012, 4.2 million Great American Cleanup volunteers worked tirelessly to return nearly $230 million in measurable benefits in 20,000 communities across the country.

Keep America Beautiful will host its second annual “National Day of Action” (NDA) on April 6, 2013 supporting the Great American Cleanup. Our National Day of Action will spotlight special events in select cities and towns, among the many events that will take place throughout the spring, as millions of volunteers work together to build vibrant communities across the country.  

Many KAB affiliates and GAC participating organizations will be engaging volunteers in projects throughout the country on the National Day of Action. Click here to find an organization near you.
