Autodesk employees help Richardson Bay Audubon Center & Sanctuary with hundreds of plants and trees…

On February 17, 2016, Center for Volunteer & Nonprofit Leadership (CVNL) partnered with RBACS for a day of service and team building with more than a dozen Autodesk employees. Immediately upon arrival, volunteers were energized and ready to engage and contribute to rehabilitation of RBACS’ natural ecosystems. Volunteers worked in teams in RBACS native plant nursery to assemble plants that will be transported on boards to Aramburu Island. Autodesk employees also created flower beds around the historic Lyford House.

Enjoy the slideshow of photos from the day.
