We want to spread the word about your event!
Do you have pictures and information from a community clean-up, beautification or recycling project you'd like to tell everyone about? Then send them our way!
After the conclusion of your event, fill out the form below. Keep Houston Beautiful wants to aggregate data about all the city's year-round volunteer activities. This data will allow us to see the impact organizations have had on the Houston community and how we can help to continue beautifying Houston.
Do you have a community service event planned and need tools and supplies? We are here to help!
Through a strategic partnership, the Houston ToolBank maintains our tool and supply lending program. To schedule supply pick-ups/drop offs or for questions about your order, please call the Houston ToolBank at 713-674-0262. All supplies will be picked up at the ToolBank Warehouse:

How do WE Keep Houston Beautiful?
- KHB organized the first anti-litter campaign in 1979
- KHB's partnership with the City of Houston's Department of Public Works and Engineering Street and Bridge Division has resulted in an award winning Adopt-A-Ditch program.
- KHB volunteers labored further to beautify the city and restore public areas to our citizens. Parks, esplanades and city blocks are cleaned up. Additionally, flower beds and gardens are installed and trees are planted.
- KHB is an affiliate of Keep America Beautiful, Inc. and a member of Keep Texas Beautiful.
- KHB stores its trash bags and hand tools at City of Houston Environmental Service Center. Volunteers and community groups borrow tools for cleanups and beautification. Look at what we accomplished during the fiscal year 2015-2016:
- Mobilized 8,662 volunteers, who contributed over 35,000 hours- removed more than 163,000 pounds of trash and debris from Houston neighborhoods and public spaces
- Cleared 91 illegal dump sites, 95 vacant lots and 124 ditches
- Disposed of over 368 discarded tires
- Mowed 812 overgrown vacant lots
- Cleaned and beautified 46 parks
- Planted over 355 flowers and plants and 493 oxygen-producing trees in 35 community flower beds
