Keep Georgia Beautiful Foundation Day at the state capitol; recognize
This resolution (HR 1079) formally recognizes "Keep Georgia Beautiful Foundation Day" at the Georgia State Capitol. It honors the Keep Georgia Beautiful Foundation (KGBF), a nonprofit established in 1978 that coordinates community clean-up, recycling, and beautification efforts across Georgia through nearly 70 local affiliates. The resolution highlights KGBF’s annual impact - such as engaging 100,000 volunteers yearly and returning $119 in statewide benefits for every $1 invested in the program - but does not create new laws, funding, or obligations. It is purely ceremonial, with no policy changes or direct effects on residents or government operations.
