Keep Midland Beautiful was founded in 1983 as an independent nonprofit organization dedicated to making Midland cleaner and more aesthetically pleasing, its website reported. It was initially funded and supported by the city of Midland and the Midland Chamber of Commerce, and it is now a member of the Keep America Beautiful Clean Community System.
Since its inception, the amount of liter in Midland has decreased by 95%, parks have been built and improved and an emphasis has been placed on waste management. According to the website, its mission is to “educate and inspire our community to take action, to create a clean, beautiful and waste-free Midland.”
