Twice during the year, CNR members plant trees for Trees Charlotte. The goal is to restore the tree canopy in Charlotte. The club also holds fundraisers for the group.
Along with the Cribs for Kids Organization from Pittsburg, the club sponsors a Breadth of Life Stroll each year in Freedom Park.

All proceeds from this event go to Cribs for Kids.
