Keep UL Lafayette Beautiful has been awarded the 2024 Keep Louisiana Beautiful (KLB) University Affiliate grant to fund installation of sustainable infrastructure and support sustainable education

The 204 KLB University Affiliate grant of $5000 will support efforts to increase the campus inventory of trash and recycling receptacles in the lobbies of academic, administrative, and residential buildings. This implementation will increase waste streams and waste diversion measures on campus, which will minimize litter from polluting our campus grounds and local waterways.

Please join Keep UL Lafayette Beautiful, a KLB University Affiliate, in our waste abatement efforts by participating in Krewe de Coulee: Mardi Gras, March 6, and Love the Boot Week, April 5-13, and engage in educational programming during Fete de la Tere, in April. Information about these events will be released at a later date.
