WHAT IS ADOPT-A-STREET?

KAB’s Adopt-a-Street program gives local groups the opportunity to help keep Austin beautiful by collecting litter and beautifying streets in the community.

WHY ADOPT-A-STREET?

• It's an easy way for groups to help the community
• It makes a visible impact on the local environment
  
• It helps build community and group pride
  
• It reduces litter cleanup costs and saves taxpayers money
  

IT'S EASY!

• Groups adopt at least 1/2 a mile within the City of Austin for 2 years
• Groups agree to have at least 4 cleanups per year
• Groups pay a one time fee of $152 to have the Adopt-a-Street sign produced and installed
  

• As an Adopt-a-Street group you will receive:
  • Guidance planning your cleanups
    
  • NEW! An Adoption Packet that includes: a first aid kit, three Team KAB t-shirts, KAB decals and temporary tattoos, hand sanitizer and sunscreen
  • FREE Cleanup Kits (for each cleanup you will recieve a kit that contains: bags, gloves, litter pick-up tools and giveaway items as available)
  • Trash collection arranged by KAB
  • A REALLY cool street sign!
