Providing leadership is a Board of Directors and Advisory Board comprised of volunteers from all sectors of Brunswick and the Golden Isles. The organization is officially recognized as a Keep America Beautiful/Keep Georgia Beautiful affiliate. Monetary, in-kind, and volunteer support for specific programs/activities is sought from businesses, governments, civic/community organizations, schools, and individuals, reinforcing the concept of a KAB/KGB system as a public/private sector partnership.
