KBRB Inc., the local affiliate of Keep America Beautiful, is pleased to announce the 10th Annual Clean Business of the Year Awards Program for 2008. KBRB, a nonprofit organization, is the primary anti-litter organization in Greater Baton Rouge Area and seeks to change attitudes that create litter, encourage beautification efforts, and promote recycling. With sponsorship and support from the community, we are again providing the opportunity to recognize those businesses and institutions that present an aesthetically appealing image. Insufficient attention is often paid to those businesses, schools, churches, and other institutions that do an outstanding job of maintaining the appearance of their place of business and utilizing recycling methods.
We invite you to recognize those corporate and community institutions by nominating them for the 2008 Clean Business of the Year Awards. See our sponsors and previous years winners.
