Keep Victoria Beautiful Now Offering Beautification Grants for Businesses

Keep Victoria Beautiful is about many things.

The most obvious is literally about cleaning up litter on our streets, keeping it off and improving the look of our city in general. So this means city-wide roadway clean-ups, beautification projects such as planting flowers, and trees and putting up hanging baskets, and neighborhood clean-ups to assist our neighbors that need a little extra help. Keep Victoria Beautiful has volunteer events you can sign up for, Business Beautification Awards awarded monthly and now even a Beautification Grant Program that businesses and other community organizations can apply for!

But even more importantly, Keep Victoria Beautiful is about the community pride that these events and projects bring forth in the people of Victoria.

You might not have ever participated in a clean-up, but if you have seen volunteers cleaning up, helping their neighbors, or even just heard about it, you might just feel a little bit better about Victoria. And this feeling builds and spreads so that Victoria becomes a place to celebrate and take care of.

And just think what this says to visitors when they come to Victoria. It says that there must be something wonderful about this place. This then translates to new businesses looking to come to Victoria, and other new opportunities to make this city truly vibrant.
