Clayton celebrated the announcement with an official check presentation and three river cleanups in March, where team members from Clayton Rutledge, Clayton Bean Station, TRU Halls and TRU White Pine home building facilities volunteered at Cherokee Lake and Norris Lake. Team members removed 45,823 pounds of trash from Tennessee waterways, including 175 tires, two TVs, an abandoned boat and two fuel tanks.
克萊頓在三月份通過出示官方支票和三次河流清理活動來慶祝這一宣佈，來自克萊頓·拉特利奇、克萊頓·比恩站、TRU Halls和TRU白松家居建築設施的團隊成員在切諾基湖和諾里斯湖做了志願者。團隊成員從田納西州水道中清除了45,823磅的垃圾，包括175個輪胎、兩臺電視、一艘廢棄的船和兩個油箱。
Kathleen Gibi, Keep the Tennessee River Beautiful executive director, says, "We are thrilled to have Clayton as an official partner of Keep the Tennessee River Beautiful. In 2023, our organization removed a record 218,000 pounds of garbage from the Tennessee watershed, and Clayton team members helped us achieve that milestone by collecting 82,717 pounds of garbage. We're so grateful for Clayton's commitment to continue protecting our watershed and for the hundreds of team members who have participated in these incredibly impactful cleanups."
Keep the Tennessea River Beautiful 執行董事凱瑟琳·吉比說：“我們很高興克萊頓成爲 “保持田納西河美麗” 的官方合作伙伴。2023 年，我們的組織從田納西流域清除了創紀錄的 218,000 磅垃圾，克萊頓團隊成員通過收集了 82,717 磅的垃圾，幫助我們實現了這一里程碑。我們非常感謝克萊頓承諾繼續保護我們的分水嶺，也感謝數百名團隊成員參與了這些影響極大的清理工作。”
In addition to river cleanups, Clayton home building and supply facilities in Tennessee and Alabama are participating in a cigarette recycling program with Keep the Tennessee River Beautiful. "Littered cigarettes are a major contributor to microplastic pollution in our waterways," says William Jenkins, Clayton Home Building Group senior director of environment and sustainability. "Since December, we've collected more than 6,000 cigarette filters that will be recycled and repurposed into outdoor plastic furniture instead of littering our waterways." The recycling program is also supported by Keep America Beautiful, of which Keep the Tennessee River Beautiful is an affiliate, the Tennessee Valley Authority and the Tennessee Department of Transportation.
除了河流清理外，田納西州和阿拉巴馬州的克萊頓房屋建築和供應設施還參與了一項名爲 “保持田納西河美麗” 的香菸回收計劃。克萊頓家居建築集團環境與可持續發展高級董事威廉·詹金斯說：“亂扔的香菸是我們水道中微塑料污染的主要原因。”“自12月以來，我們已經收集了6,000多個香菸過濾器，這些過濾器將被回收並重新用於戶外塑料傢俱，而不是在我們的水道上亂扔垃圾。”該回收計劃還得到了Keep America Beautiful（Keep the Tennessea Beautiful）的附屬機構、田納西河谷管理局和田納西州交通部的支持。
The partnership is a natural fit for Clayton, a leading single-family, values-driven home builder dedicated to attainable housing, sustainable practices, and creating a world-class experience for customers and team members. The company provides team members with paid volunteer time off to make significant community impacts, and the partnership with Keep the Tennessee River Beautiful reflects Clayton's dedication to driving change by advancing sustainability and doing good by giving back to others.
該合作伙伴關係非常適合克萊頓，克萊頓是一家領先的單戶住宅，以價值爲導向的房屋建築商，致力於提供可實現的住房、可持續的實踐，併爲客戶和團隊成員創造世界一流的體驗。該公司爲團隊成員提供帶薪志願者休假，以對社區產生重大影響，與Keep the Tennessee River Beautiful 的合作反映了克萊頓致力於通過促進可持續發展來推動變革，並通過回饋他人來做好事。
Up next for the two organizations are more cleanups along the Tennessee River, including events in Alabama near Clayton home building facilities. "It's great to partner with an organization whose footprint in Tennessee and Alabama mirrors the Tennessee watershed landscape," says Gibi, "where Clayton team members can directly impact their community's water quality for generations to come."
這兩個組織接下來是田納西河沿岸的更多清理工作，包括在阿拉巴馬州克萊頓房屋建築設施附近的活動。吉比說：“與一個在田納西州和阿拉巴馬州的足跡反映了田納西州流域景觀的組織合作真是太好了，克萊頓的團隊成員可以直接影響子孫後代社區的水質。”
