36 Years of Serving the Midlands!

In 2024, we…

  • Provided supplies for over 6,000 volunteers;
  • Were responsible for 738 litter pickup events;
  • Helped to remove almost 190,000 pounds of litter;
  • And much more!

Beautification

In 2025, Keep the Midlands Beautiful is installing murals in several of the 19 municipalities that we serve across Lexington and Richland counties. To recommend a mural artist, public location for a mural, or to sponsor a mural for $3,500, contact programs@kmbsc.org.

Litter Prevention

In 2024, Keep the Midlands Beautiful recruited 6,027 volunteers who spent 16,841 hours removing 189,807 pounds of litter and 860 bags of recyclables at 738 litter cleanup events.

Recycling

Each year we provide six free paper shredding drop-off events for residents, we collect over 5,500 pairs of shoes for people in developing countries, we provide free recycling, trash, and cigarette containers for events, and we provide recycling education and presentations.

Submit a short report card after each litter pick-up to document the number of volunteers, hours spent and the number of bags of litter collected.  This helps us receive crucial funding to provide supplies for you at no charge.
