Mary Kay

Mary Kay Incorporated, a global advocate for corporate sustainability and stewardship, announced the completion of a 69-acre (27.92 hectares) reforestation project to revitalize Florida’s Econfina Creek Wildlife Management Area.

The reforestation project is in partnership with the Arbor Day Foundation.

To date, Mary Kay Inc has planted more than 1.2 million trees with partners across the globe, it said in a statement.

Working alongside the Northwest Florida Water Management District, the Arbor Day Foundation and Mary Kay partnered to plant 43,000 longleaf pine that will help protect critical water resources in Bay County Florida.

“Trees truly are the closest thing our planet has to superheroes,” said the chief operating officer for the company that is Deborah Gibbins.

“They absorb carbon, improve water quality and produce vital oxygen. Their powers are unmatched, which is why Mary Kay Inc invests so heavily in reforestation projects around the globe,” she continued.

Key project environmental and biodiversity benefits include restoring and preserving the primary source of drinking water for Bay County, Florida, and replanting native tree species to return this area to its natural state.

The project also improves the habitat for area wildlife including deer, bobwhite quail, Sherman’s fox squirrels, and gopher tortoises.
