Dollar Tree Partners with Keep America Beautiful for Community Cleanup

STAMFORD, Conn., Oct. 05, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Keep America Beautiful and Dollar Tree have announced a new national partnership aimed at reducing litter and improving public spaces across the United States. The collaboration, which marks a significant step in celebrating America’s 250th birthday, will see Dollar Tree associates participate in volunteer projects in 25 cities across the country through the end of 2026.

According to Jennifer Lawson, President and CEO of Keep America Beautiful, the partnership is a testament to the organization's mission to create cleaner, greener, and more beautiful communities.

As part of the partnership, Dollar Tree is supporting the Greatest American Cleanup, a national campaign by Keep America Beautiful. This initiative aims to clean and beautify communities in celebration of the country's bicentennial. Dollar Tree is also funding various initiatives to address litter challenges, including the Litter Solution Grant Program and the Keep America Beautiful Love Our Community Recognition Award.

The Keep America Beautiful Love Our Community Recognition Award will offer $50,000 in grants to support mayors, county commissioners, and other local government leaders who are advancing innovative, data-informed approaches to litter reduction. The program aims to help communities put promising ideas into action, scale effective solutions, and share successful approaches that can be replicated in communities across the country.
