|
One of six Keep America Beautiful and Anheuser-Busch cleanup grants announced this week went to Keep Pennsylvania Beautiful- Southwest to help cleanup illegal dumps in Washington County.
The grant applicants were matched up with their local Anheuser-Busch wholesalers to support a variety of environmental programs, including increasing awareness of the need to recycle beverage containers and providing infrastructure to do so.
"We want to congratulate these six Keep America Beautiful affiliates and their local Anheuser-Busch wholesalers who have been selected from so many worthy candidates from across the country," said Hugh Share, director of environmental sustainability for Anheuser-Busch, Inc. "Local recycling efforts, such as these, are making a lasting impact on protecting our environment for future generations and Anheuser-Busch is proud to support these initiatives."
"We want to thank Anheuser-Busch for their continued support of our local Keep America Beautiful affiliates," said Matt McKenna, president and CEO of KAB. "The partnerships between our affiliates and Anheuser-Busch's wholesalers have truly made an impact in promoting recycling and the responsible disposal of used beverage containers."
The project will be done in cooperation with the Washington County Chapter of PA CleanWays and other partners.
