PRIDE Spring Cleanup

KENTUCKY....
Spring is just around the corner, and, with it, comes the PRIDE Spring Cleanup project dedicated to the beautification of Pike County. It's never too early, but sometimes almost too late to consider the environment around us. PRIDE, a nonprofit organization founded in 1997, needs your help this year in it's cleanup effort. At a meeting in Pikeville Monday, PRIDE officials and volunteers discussed plans for the April project aimed at making Pike County the beautiful place it was meant to be. So, come on and take PRIDE in your neighborhood and clean up Pike County.

A $101,450 grant was announced Monday by Bluegrass PRIDE (Personal Responsibility In a Desirable Environment) which will be appropriated to six projects which will help foster positive environmental change in Central Kentucky. The grant was made possible by an appropriation from U.S. Rep. Ben Chandler through the Appalachian Regional Commission.
