 What is a Campus Affiliate?

Did you know that regularly engaging youth in recycling and other sustainable activities will increase the likelihood of them continuing green practices into adulthood by 75%? Ecology and environmental clubs are a great way to energize students about taking care of the Earth and helping their community while learning about some of the most critical issues facing the planet in the 21st century. We want to help schools create new and strengthen existing green issue clubs by providing recognition of the Keep Tyler Beautiful name and our resources.

Whether you are trying to start a new club or grow an existing club on your campus, KTyB is here to help. We can provide resources for your school organization and help make your campus greener.
