Mary Kay Inc. continued its 60th anniversary celebration with a tree planting event. Through a collaboration with the Arbor Day Foundation and Keep Lewisville Beautiful, Mary Kay reinforced its long-term commitment to sustainability and environmental protection by planting 60 native trees at Railroad Park, a connected system of trails and waterways just four miles from the company’s Richard R. Rogers Manufacturing and R&D Center.
The trees planted in this area will directly impact the local Lewisville community by providing shade in community spaces and benefitting the ecosystem of the Trinity River watershed.
“Through partnerships with organizations like the Arbor Day Foundation, Mary Kay is making positive environmental impact in ecosystems where we operate around the world,” said Ryan Rogers, Mary Kay Inc. CEO and grandson of Mary Kay Ash. “But change starts in your own backyard. We enjoyed ‘sprucing’ up the community by planting trees that will benefit local families for generations to come.”
