Our Commitment
Sharing shade, time, and support with the communities we call home.
Giving Back
Natural Elements was built on a simple belief: the best outdoor spaces bring people together. So do the best communities. As a father-and-son company with deep roots in Arizona, we believe the success we build here should be shared with the families, neighbors, and organizations who make this state home.
Giving back isn’t an annual gesture for us. It’s built into how we run the company—into our projects, our partnerships, and the time we choose to give. Every space we design is a chance to make Arizona a little better, and we take that seriously, on and off the job site.
A Note From Our Founders
“We’ve spent our careers helping people create places to gather. Giving back is how we make sure more of Arizona gets to share in that—the schools, families, and neighbors who may never become customers, but are every bit a part of the community we build for.
Two generations, one shared commitment: build something we’re proud of, and leave every community we work in better than we found it.
Why It Matters
Our summers are some of the hottest in the country. For schools, community centers, and families across Arizona, a cool, sheltered place to gather can be hard to come by. We know firsthand what a thoughtful outdoor space can do—it protects people from the heat, extends the day, and gives a community somewhere to come together. That’s why so much of our giving starts with what we know best.
Shelter from the desert sun for the people who need it most.
Places where families, students, and neighbors can come together.
Spaces that show a community it’s seen and cared for.
How We Give
Our commitment takes shape in four ways, each one connected to the work we do and the communities we serve.
A portion of every completed Natural Elements project goes directly to the Arizona organizations we partner with. When you invest in your outdoor space, you’re investing in your community, too.
We donate products, design time, and installation expertise to create shaded outdoor spaces for schools, community centers, and nonprofits that serve our neighbors.
We don’t just write checks. Our team shows up in person—for volunteer build days, community events, and the causes we believe in.
We’d rather go deep than wide. By supporting a select group of local organizations year after year, our impact grows over time instead of fading after a single season.
Where Our Support Goes
We focus our giving where we believe it can make the most lasting difference in the Arizona communities we serve.
Shaded play areas, outdoor learning spaces, and support for the programs that give Arizona kids a safe, comfortable place to learn and grow.
Parks, community centers, and shared outdoor spaces where neighbors come together, made more comfortable and usable all year long.
Support for the local organizations helping Arizona families through hard seasons, so more people have a place where they feel at home.
