The WM New Boston Landfill Neighborhood Recommendation Committee recently awarded $10,000 to nine local organizations through the 2025 Neighborhood Recognition Grant program, supporting projects that make a positive difference in the community. These grants reflect WM’s commitment to sustainability, community well‑being, and environmental stewardship, while investing in the people and places that make the New Boston area strong.
The grants help fund everyday efforts that feed families, educate students, care for shared spaces, and improve quality of life, while encouraging community pride and responsible care for local resources.
This year’s recipients include Community Kitchen, Nick’s Mission Backpack Program, Rock Solid Resource Center, Bowie County Soil & Water Conservation District, Magnolia Cemetery Association, New Boston Education Foundation, Redwater Intermediate School, Runnin’ WJ Ranch, and West Bowie County Rotary Club. Each organization relies on local volunteers and neighbors working together to meet real needs and support a healthier, more connected community.
