PHOENIX , March 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The Republic Services Charitable Foundation and Republic Services, Inc. (NYSE: RSG) today announced recipients of the foundation's 2026 National Neighborhood Promise grants ® . Fourteen nonprofit organizations will receive funding to support community revitalization and neighborhood improvement projects that foster stronger, more sustainable communities.
The Republic Services Charitable Foundation's National Neighborhood Promise program supports nonprofit organizations in communities where Republic Services customers and employees live and work. To date, the program has benefitted more than 14 million people across North America.
In addition to monetary donations, local Republic Services' teams will dedicate a day of service at each grant location, working alongside nonprofit partners to strengthen programs and spaces that directly benefit the community.
"At Republic Services, we support communities in ways that make a lasting positive impact for our neighbors," said Elena Goodhall, director of community investment for Republic Services. "Our nonprofit partners are leading positive change in our neighborhoods, and we aim to help foster stronger, more resilient communities."
This year's National Neighborhood Promise grants, totaling $2.9 million, expect to positively impact approximately 1.7 million people throughout the United States. Each grant supports projects that address pressing community needs, such as green spaces, playgrounds, community gardens, workforce development and vulnerable population resources, all designed to enhance quality of life and build thriving communities.
"This generous investment from Republic Services will help transform Archdale Village Park and Playground into the safe, vibrant green space this community needs," said Jodi Valenta, associate vice president and Massachusetts state director for Trust for Public Land. "Trust for Public Land is committed to ensuring every Boston resident has access to high-quality parks and green spaces, and this investment reflects what is possible when public, private and community partners come together around a shared vision."
