Public Park Recycling Bin Grant program



The Public Park Recycling Bin Grant program, sponsored by Keep America Beautiful (KAB) and the Dr Pepper Snapple Group, is designed to help local, regional and state parks establish or expand recycling opportunities. Grantees will receive their choice of four different styles of recycling bins and will be eligible to purchase additional bins at a discounted price. Info here.



Information and application.

The intent of the program is to help local communities increase the number of beverage containers recovered for recycling. While not every request can be fulfilled, the program looks to award bins to those applicants who can demonstrate the greatest potential to impact beverage container recovery. The grant specifically targets beverage container recycling and is not intended to provide bins for collecting paper or other materials.

The program is open to all government agencies that own or manage local, regional or state parks. Nonprofit organizations and KAB affiliates are also eligible to apply on behalf of government agencies.

Deadline:  April 26, 2013
