“We are excited to provide this opportunity for community groups and individuals to showcase their local programs. A lot of hard work and partnerships go into the Great American Cleanup of PA events and that’s what we want to see!” says Shannon Reiter, president of Keep PA Beautiful.  “The Keep Pennsylvania Beautiful video contest is a way to gain recognition, build support for local programs and thank all the volunteers and sponsors who helped make your Great American Cleanup of PA event a success.”
