Young Living takes its dedication to community and social responsibility seriously, which is why on Earth Day, April 22, approximately 2,000 Young Living employees headed out into their communities to give back on the first annual Employee Service Day. 

One group of employees, in partnership with the Arbor Day Foundation and the city of Lehi, Utah, planted 40 trees in North Lake Park, which will create a lush canopy that park users can enjoy for years to come. Volunteers who served in the many canyons surrounding the Salt Lake valley pulled thousands of pounds of myrtle spurge, a noxious and invasive weed, while others collected hundreds of pounds of trash from parks, neighborhoods, and adopted highways. 

Young Living employees weren’t the only ones excited about the opportunity to serve, as Ann Shumway from Camp Jeremiah Johnson explained. “I’ve never seen a group work so hard and get so much accomplished. We were able to complete projects that have needed to be done for years. I can’t even begin to tell you how grateful we are for the service!”
