OUR MISSION Keep Indianapolis Beautiful’s mission is to engage diverse communities to create vibrant public places, helping people and nature thrive™. OUR VISION KIB sees a beautiful Indianapolis that is loved, cared for, and ecologically rich. A city defined by strong neighborhoods, inspired places, and a clean, flourishing environment. KIB will engage and empower people to improve environmental equity throughout the city. STRATEGIC PLAN SUMMARY In February 2021, the Board of Directors of Keep Indianapolis Beautiful (KIB) approved the organization’s next Strategic Plan, covering the next four years (2021 – 2024). The guiding principle of this plan is a focus on improving environmental equity in Indianapolis. A data-driven analysis has shown that some neighborhoods in Indianapolis have access to fewer environmental benefits like trees, green space, and clean streets than others. KIB will work alongside residents to thoughtfully deploy resources that aim to improve equitable access to these benefits. The Plan includes three key goals: 1. To improve access to environmental benefits, so people can thrive in nature. This includes not only improving access to existing and new green spaces and waterways but also improving biodiversity. KIB will focus not only on reducing the amount of litter, but also to reduce the act of littering in the first place. 2. To broaden neighborhood representation and community input into our organization’s decision-making. KIB will create new community stakeholder groups to give voice and agency to different neighborhoods, to increase education, and create awareness. Community members will have influence on KIB’s decisions about where and how to bring our resources to a neighborhood. 3. To ensure the long-term sustainability of the organization. KIB will work toward diversifying its income sources, build cash reserves, and increase endowment dollars to support the first two goals.

From the website: "Our goal is clean and healthy Virginia Beach waterways and our objectives are: • To identify and reduce sources of contamination in our waterways. That includes reducing nutrients, sediments, and chemicals that run off of our lawns, parking lots, roadways, farmland, and out of our septic systems. • To educate and engage the community and partner organizations in restoring and protecting our waterways and natural areas. • To restore lost habitats such as oyster reefs, salt marshes, native plants, forests, and other buffers that help to filter polluted runoff and protect our waterways and their marine life."
