Tree Planting Initiative | Arbor Day Foundation

Senior Tax Manager Mikki Obreja began a team initiative this fall to plant 100 trees around the world in honor of CBM’s 100th anniversary. She encouraged staff to contribute either by planting their own trees or by donating to organizations that plant trees around the world. The movement was motivated by her desire to offset the effects of climate change and provide places of shelter/food for wildlife animals across the globe.

Mikki wishes to thank the following team members who have contributed to this initiative and encourages staff to continue donating until we reach our goal of 100 trees.
