CIGARETTE LITTER PREVENTION PROGRAM (CLPP) In 2002, Keep America Beautiful (KAB) began to research and field-test solutions to an emerging litter problem for communities across the country, cigarette butt litter. The result is a program which is a cornerstone of the KAB "Portfolio of Programs", the Cigarette Litter Prevention Program. From 2003 to present, KAB has promoted the program and supported its implementation to community leaders around the country with technical assistance and seed grants. Through 2011 there have been over 1000 implementations in 49 states and Washington DC. The Cigarette Litter Prevention Program (CLPP) is the nation's largest program aimed at reducing cigarette litter. In 2011, CLPP reported an average 54% reduction of cigarette litter in communities implementing the program. The recipients of the grants were local community-based nonprofit organizations such as KAB affiliate organizations and members of its national partner organizations - The International Downtown Association, the International City County Management Association, and the Boat US Foundation. Since its original launch, the program has expanded from downtown areas to parks, beaches, recreation areas, highway rest stops and visitor centers, and special events such as state fairs.

The Great American Cleanup Nearly 4 million volunteers participated in Keep America Beautiful's 2011 Great American Cleanup, the nation's largest grassroots community improvement program. The Great American Cleanup, Keep America Beautiful's signature cause-marketing program focuses on providing experiential, hands-on education to volunteers and participants as they engage in local community improvement activities. In 2011 The Great American Cleanup motivated volunteers to become stewards of the environment and work together throughout the year to make neighborhoods cleaner, safer and more beautiful. Those volunteers donated more than 5.2 million hours at 30,600 events in 16,500 communities throughout all 50 states. Those volunteer hours are valued at over $111 million in services returned to their communities according to 2011 Independent Sector statistics. Keep America Beautiful and its National Sponsors act as national and local "change agents" as they effect and sustain improvements to a local community's environments. The 2011 Great American Cleanup results demonstrate the role of volunteers in reinforcing civic pride: " 177 million pounds of litter and debris were removed from public lands and rights-of-way, " 2,800 playgrounds and community recreation areas were improved, restored or constructed. " 6,400 illegal dump sites were remediated. The Great American Cleanup encourages and emphasizes the role of recycling in recovering valuable resources, reducing energy consumption, and fostering community sustainability. " More than 290 million plastic (PET) bottles were collected for recycling, " 7.9 million pounds of electronics collected for recycling " 12.1 million pounds of glass were collected for recycling, as well as more than 800,000 scrap tires. Recognizing that green spaces and gardens contribute to better economies, healthier citizens and greater civic pride, volunteers grabbed tools and got to work: " 5,600 beautification and greening projects were undertaken, with 728 edible community gardens planted or replanted. " 1.5 million flowers and bulbs, and 166,000 trees were planted to create lasting beauty. " 10,100 graffiti sites were remediated. In 2011, the companies and brands supporting the campaign included some of America's leading companies: LG Electronics U.S.A., Inc.; Lowe's Companies, Inc. through the Lowe's Charitable and Educational Foundation; The Dow Chemical Company; The Glad Products Company; Nestl Pure Life Purified Water; PepsiCo's Pepsi-Cola and Gatorade companies; The Scotts Miracle-Gro Company; Solo Cup Company; Troy-Bilt Lawn and Garden Equipment; Waste Management, Inc.; and Wm.

America Recycles Day America Recycles Day (ARD) takes place each November 15. More than a celebration, ARD is the only nationally recognized day dedicated to the promotion of recycling programs in the United States. Millions of Americans have pledged to increase their recycling habits at home and at work over the 14-year history of ARD, a nationally-recognized initiative dedicated to encouraging people to recycle more at home, at work, and on the go. The recycling events that take each November and are designed to educate, motivate and inspire individuals to recycle more while encouraging their friends and families to do the same. America Recycles Day is supported by many national and local nonprofits as well as sponsoring businesses and corporations. Last year, America Recycles Day engaged more than 1,800 event organizers and nearly 13,800 groups, who registered more than 2,000 events and involved 2 million ARD participants, a 20% increase in reach and participation from the previous year.

2011 NEW PROGRAM SERVICES FORM 990, PART III, LINE 2 2011 New Program Services Recyclebowl In October 2011, KAB launched "Recyclebowl" an annual country-wide k-12 school recycling competition which ran for four weeks. Through Recycle-Bowl, KAB galvanizes recycling in elementary, middle and high schools across America. The mission of the program is to invigorate student participation through a national K-12 recycling competition. The objectives are to " Establish new recycling programs within schools " Increase recycling rates in schools that currently recycle " Provide teacher/student educational opportunities about recycling and waste reduction. This year, more than 1,200 schools comprising of over 500,000 students from 47 states participated in the inaugural competition and 2 million pounds of recyclables were recovered. Participants reported the competition gave them a mechanism to start or improve their school's recycling operations. Importantly, they indicated that it also provided them with invaluable teaching moments about sustainability, math, science and social studies." From Oct. 17 through Nov. 12, 2011, participating schools recycled as much as possible. The total amount of recyclables recovered during the 2011 competition added up to 2,088,000 pounds, which in turn prevented the release of nearly 990 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (MTCO2E). In real-world terms, this reduction in greenhouse gases is equivalent to the annual emissions from 154 passenger cars or 191,998 gallons of gas. The competition offered a $1,000 prize to the school in each state that collected the most recyclable material per capita. A national champion was then chosen from among the statewide winners to receive an additional grand prize of $2,500, earning a total of $3,500 in prize money. Recycle-Bowl achievements are listed below: " 1,226 schools registered - 1% of all U.S. public and private schools. " Approximately 544,900 students participated in the competition. " On average, 5.32 pounds of material was collected per person during the four weeks of the competition. " 67% of schools saw "significant" or "some" increase in the amount of material recycled. " 2% of schools started a recycling program because of Recycle-Bowl. Littering is Wrong Too After conducting a successful pilot program in Cincinnati in partnership with the local KAB, in 2011 Keep America Beautiful launched a new litter prevention campaign called "Littering is Wrong Too". The campaign takes a unique and light-hearted approach in order to get attention and be remembered and employs both traditional and non-traditional social marketing approaches and execution. It links littering with wrongdoing, while also defining the personality of the litterer as socially unacceptable. While true behavior change does not happen overnight, the test period did reveal initial success. More than 1,200 wrongs were submitted to a dedicated web site, litteringiswrong2.org. and research indicated a direct increase in awareness for the campaign and more importantly the problem and importance of litter. This ongoing campaign was launched in 2011 to Keep America Beautiful Affiliates in Milwaukee, Houston and Smyrna. Other cities also implemented Littering is Wrong Too. The message is intended to reach all residents of a specific market but is primarily geared at those 18-34 years old, identified as the worst offenders of litter according to litter behavior studies. The ultimate goal of the campaign is to change perceptions of those who litter and the act of littering, to induce a long-term change in behavior and lead to a cleaner, more beautiful city. By comparing littering to other wrong (and ridiculous) behaviors, the campaign communicates just how wrong it is to litter.
OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES SOME OF THE OTHER MAJOR PROGRAM SERVICES INCLUDE: Public Space Recycling Keep America Beautiful's (KAB) Public Space Recycling Initiative brings greater awareness to opportunities for public space recycling and develops greater community capacity to implement recycling "away from home". In 2011, KAB distributed tens of thousands of recycling bins valued at more than $700,000 to schools/campuses, public parks, recreation areas, special events, beaches, street corners, and other public venues. These bin grants programs provide recycling bins directly to recipients and leverages the purchasing power and recycling expertise of KAB. Since its inception in the fall of 2007, KAB has donated recycling bins in 380 communities in 48 states and the District of Columbia. KAB teamed with several sponsors in 2011 including Alcoa, Inc., Anheuser Busch, The Coca Cola Foundation, and PepsiCo to donate public space recycling bins to communities across the country.
PRESENTATION CHANGE-STATEMENT OF FUNCTIONAL EXPENSES   In 2010, all expenses allocated to the various programs were included as one "Special Project" expense on line 24 of Part IX, Statement of Functional Expenses.
