INVESTING IN OUR COMMUNITIES

The Coca-Cola Company, Keurig Dr Pepper and PepsiCo are working together to

We are working in communities across the country to reduce plastic waste in the
environment by investing in state-of-the-art infrastructure upgrades, expanding
access to curbside recycling and supporting community education efforts. We’re
partnering with local governments, national organizations and community leaders
to ensure our investments meet the needs of each community.
