We at Keep New Zealand Beautiful really love this country!

And we need as many people to help us keep it beautiful. As a non-profit organisation KNZB operates as a charitable trust to promote litter abatement, waste minimisation as well as town and city beautification across New Zealand.

We're about inspiring, educating and providing resources for volunteers who share our passion. We are famous for our annual 'Clean up Week', 'Best Towns and Cities Awards', Do the Right Thing and Be a Tidy Kiwi campaigns, but we don’t stop there!

KNZB Members and volunteers include schools, councils, businesses and community groups who work together in their own patch and across NZ to make their environments a better place.

Get Involved

Find out how you can easily make a difference to our beautiful country by getting involved in our initiatives and programmes which spread right across Aotearoa. Also, feel free to contact us if you have any ideas on how we can help you and your community out in Keeping New Zealand Beautiful!

Better still, become part of the crew by joining as a member of KNZB and supporting the Kiwi’s we’re working with at the grass-roots level.
