Keep Chamblee Beautiful (KCB) began in 1991 when Virginia Baker established the 501(c)(3) as Chamblee Clean and Beautiful, operating under the umbrella of Keep DeKalb Beautiful. For 20+ years, the organization performed countless litter collections, tree and flower plantings, park bench installations, Christmas tree recycling programs, stream clean-ups and much more.
By 2015, Chamblee’s population had expanded to nearly 30,000 residents thanks to multiple annexations. More young singles, couples and families moved into Chamblee, and brought new energy and excitement around reinvigorating Keep Chamblee Beautiful.
Since early 2019, KCB has been working to complete the requirements to become a direct registered affiliate of Keep America Beautiful. In June 2019, we signed a formal Memorandum of Understanding with the City of Chamblee, Georgia. Our direct affiliation with Keep America Beautiful and our formal partnership with the City will help us increase our visibility and fund greater sustainability programs to better the Chamblee community.
KCB’s Officers are all volunteer citizens of Chamblee, and this organization is self-funded. Every penny of your membership money and/or donation(s) go right back into the City of Chamblee, in ways that help support our mission.
