Keep Waco Beautiful: Charity Champions Podcast

Charity Champions Podcast

On this podcast:

Executive Director Ashely Crownover tells us how Keep Waco Beautiful helps the city look good through conversation, cleanups, and education.

From their website:

Keep Waco Beautiful was started in 1979 as the Beautification Committee of Waco. The committee changed its name in the 1980's to Keep Waco Beautiful. What once started as a small committee dedicated to beautifying the community is now a non-profit organization with over 13,000 volunteers and a plethora of activities yearly.

Our mission is to help make Waco a cleaner, healthier, safer and more beautiful place to live, work and play. We believe that concentrated cleanup, beautification and anti-litter programs develop a feeling of community pride among our citizens.

We are dedicated to teaching people to take responsibility for enhancing their community environment through action, education, and involvement. Keep Waco Beautiful is an affiliate of Keep Texas Beautiful and Keep America Beautiful.

Keep Waco Beautiful is an award winning program that has won the prestigious Governor's Award six times, bringing almost $1 million into the community that was used in beautification efforts, and also second place in the national Keep America Beautiful award.

Keep Waco Beautiful currently has over 400 members and over 13,000 volunteers.

About Charity Champions:

Charity Champions are nonprofit organizations chosen by TFNB Your Bank For Life employees after being nominated by the community. Winners receive an awareness marketing campaign and leadership training at no charge to the nonprofit.

The awareness campaign begins with a radio interview by the voice of the Baylor Bears, John Morris, and an on-field presentation at McLane Stadium in front of thousands of Central Texans during a Baylor Football game. It continues with recognition at Baylor Basketball games and a feature on the Charity Champions Podcast.

After football season ends, 360 Solutions brings Charity Champions winners together for world-class leadership development training during the first and second quarters of every year.
