The Maryland Environmental Trust has awarded 71 grants totaling $215,505 toward environmental education, community cleanup and beautification projects through the Keep Maryland Beautiful program. Of those awards, the Maryland Department of Housing and Community Development funded 48 “Clean Up & Green Up Maryland” grants.

“Through a cooperative multi-agency partnership led by the Maryland Department of Housing and Community Development, the Keep Maryland Beautiful program focuses on neighborhood beautification through increasing greening, citizen stewardship, community education, and litter removal,” explained Secretary Kenneth C. Holt. “I’m gratified on behalf of the Hogan administration that we are able to support Keep Maryland Beautiful through substantial investment in the grants program, a partnership with Maryland Environmental Trust and Maryland Department of Transportation that is one of the most visible ways we are able to accomplish the overall Keep Maryland Beautiful mission.”
