ABOUT BUDWEISER AMERICA MADE BETTER:

This summer, Budweiser is inviting consumers to make a splash in communities across the country by participating in a series of cleanup events, in select cities, aimed at preserving and protecting lakes and rivers. These efforts are part of the Budweiser America Made Better platform, which supports designated driver campaigns, military support efforts and water conservation programs. Budweiser is rewarding volunteers 21 and older, who register and participate in the cleanups associated with Budweiser Made in America parties, with the opportunity to receive tickets for guaranteed and expedited entry to their local party – plus a chance to get VIP access.

In addition to Los Angeles, America Made Better cleanup events are taking place in the following cities: Cartersville, Ga.; Houston; San Francisco; St. Louis; Denver; Chicago; Columbus, Ohio; New York; and Philadelphia. This year, Budweiser is donating $150,000 to River Network to facilitate the majority of America Made Better cleanups across the country and to support the organization’s annual operations.
