Or community clubs, like Kiwanis, Rotary, or Lions. Both the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts also have adoptd in many towns. Those signs are not only free adverts, but they give the group a sense of ownership of that section of road. On the state and county highways in my town, there are no sections available just now, as they've all been adopted.
Of course, if a section starts looking messy, they are likely to start getting telephone calls about their obligation!
