How Can I Help?
Cash Donations
We cannot conduct all of our programs without the help of its many generous sponsors, state and federal partners and tens of thousands of volunteers that support the work of KCB.
California's population is 34+ million people. That's a lot of people to reach. You can help us continue our work with as little as $35.
Join other California citizens by donating and supporting Keep California Beautiful.
In addition to the above, generous individuals donate cell phones (for our cell phone recycling program) computers, printers, faxes, desks, chairs and other office supplies.

Cell Phone Recycling
Do Good and Do Well: Cell Phone Recycling Helps Protect
California's Environment
One cell phone, tossed into a landfill, can pollute up to 40,000 gallons of groundwater!
Keep California Beautiful is looking to partner with environmentally-responsible businesses and other partners in the private and public sectors in its Recycle That Phone! program. Cell phones contain materials such as lead, arsenic, nickel, cadmium other materials which can pollute the ground and water. Unwanted cell phones are collected using collection boxes and secure website and are repurposed in a zero waste, environmentally-conscious manner. Proceeds from the program benefit Keep California Beautiful and support our cleanup, recycling and beautification projects across the state.
Sponsor and Partnership inquiries, please call 1-800-CLEANCA or email info@cleanca.org. Sponsors receive a number of benefits through leveraged promotional partnerships with media and other outreach opportunities.
If you are a business and would like to collect phones from your employees and/or customers, please call 1-800-CLEANCA, or info@cleanca.org.
