Giving Back To
Our Community
Nashville Ronald McDonald House
The Nashville Ronald McDonald House is one of our favorite charities. Brian Edwards, CBL partner serves on the house board as well as 2 of the fundraising committees. Our company maintains the grounds for the house at no charge, and we provide trucks and trailers for the annual “pull tab” collection days to collect and haul the tags to the recycler.

Percy Priest Elementary
In the late summer of 2018, Color Burst Teams did a fall cleanup on the school’s grounds including trimming, mulching, built 3 fairy gardens, and planted their sign bed and entrance pots with the school colors before the opening of the 2018-2019 school year. In October, teams built fall displays at their doorways and decorated the entrance steps with mums.
Earth Day
Each year since 2008, CBL teams set up 4-6 booths at commercial office buildings and campuses to hand out free tree samplings and educate tenants on the importance of plants, trees, and healthy landscapes. This has involved into a resource for everyday folks to ask the experts for advice on their own lawns and landscapes.
