Barrels
We sell sponsorships on barrels that are placed in our city parks. This has been our only continuous fundraiser. The funds help us with expenses incurred as we accomplish our mission statement. All donations are tax deductible as we are classified by the IRS as a 501-C-3 non-profit organization.

Yard of the Month
The overall goal of Keep Sherwood Beautiful’s “Yard of the Month” program is to recognize individuals whose property exemplifies and promotes beautification and pride as an example for the Sherwood Community. Nominations must be within Sherwood city limits. In the Spring we begin this program each year. Depending on the weather we will begin in May and end in August plus do one in October for Fall/Halloween décor and then again in December for Christmas Holiday décor. Winners receive a sign for their yard to keep about a month, a certificate and a gift.
