Announcing FIGHT CLUB At Corporate Business Solutions!
We started recruiting early for FIGHT CLUB, the CBS corporate team participating in the American Cancer Society’s ‘Make Strides Against Breast Cancer’ walk. Although, our local event is not being held until October, we set up a table in July to encourage sign-up with free healthy snacks of bottled water and cups of trail mix.
Fighting cancer is a passion for us. We’ve lost coworkers, family and friends as well as supported those who have become survivors. The name FIGHT CLUB was selected for our team to represent our commitment to fighting breast cancer (as well as all other types …
An Award Recognizing A Great Role Model!
Jason was a long-time employee of CBS, before he passed away of cancer at only 34 years of age. We have his photo prominently displayed in our office and, at this year’s Annual Meeting, an award was presented to further honor and keep Jason’s memory alive among his friends and coworkers.
A huge void, now, exists in the corporate services department, where Jason once worked. In the words of his supervisor, Rich, “Jason’s passion for life was incredible. His work ethic, especially during his treatments, was outstanding. His wittiness, humor, and positive outlook were amazing.”
This award, to be …
A Great Start For Our Corporate Business Solutions Annual Meeting!
Judi and Liza greeted our attendees with warm smiles.
Our annual gathering for the CBS team was launched with a healthy breakfast, which would make any mother proud! Before a long day of seminars and workshops on business best practices and tax code updates, our analysts and consultants started the day right with a buffet selection of scrambled eggs, French toast, bacon, sausage, grits, hash brown potatoes, fresh fruit, muffins and pastries as well as an assortment of cold cereals, homemade granola and yogurt. Milk, juice, tea and coffee rounded out this appetizing spread. Whatever our attendees’ diet preferences, there …
The AIDS Walk Kansas City: Walking In Memory Of Lost Loved Ones
Corporate Business Solutions supported Liza’s fundraising for AIDS Walk Kansas City on April 25, 2015, which she walked in memory of a friend of hers from Kansas City.

Lisa was proud to share that her team, Truck Stop Marys, met its $1,500 goal while the event raised more than $300,000 to benefit four Kansas City organizations, Kansas City CARE Clinic, SAVE, Inc., Good Samaritan Project and the Hope Care Center, providing assistance with healthcare, housing and counseling among other services in the Kansas City community.
We’re Supporting Our Local Food Pantry At Corporate Business Solutions
Ken carries the first bin of donations.
One cause that CBS Consulting employees feel very strongly about is fighting hunger.
Our employees have organized multiple events to prevent hunger such as packing seeds and packing ready-to-serve meals as well as collecting food and other necessities (such as paper plates, paper towels, toilet paper, diapers, aluminum foil, soap, shampoo, etc.), during our office’s Annual Food Drive for the Libertyville Food Pantry.
While employees can see the empty bins fill with grocery items, only our facilities crew has actually experienced the joy of delivering our donations to the Food Pantry. Ken and …
Wearing The Green!
At Corporate Business Solutions, we showed our St. Patrick’s Day spirit by wearing green attire and accessories! Here are some scrapbook worthy highlights!
Warm Fuzzies For Valentine’s Day!
Holidays at Corporate Business Solutions are an opportunity to let the creativity of our coworkers shine. This dessert themed potluck was no exception. Deb, our centerpiece maestro (in the photo below), created the two adorable ‘warm fuzzies,’ large-eyed creatures that appear way too cute to eat (although, we managed!). We also had two heart shaped Rice Krispie treats, two Baker’s Square silk pies (chocolate and peanut butter), and many more delectable goodies.
Sweet holiday wishes, especially for our restaurant and retail clients
to rake in impressive Valentine’s Day sales!…
CBS Delivers Happiness With Toys For Tots!
A charity that receives a huge amount of support at Corporate Business Solutions is Toys For Tots (we had collection boxes in every department). Liza, once again, organized the donations with reminder emails and posters hung throughout our offices (she also collected cash from those employees who were too busy to shop and she hit the Black Friday sales for even more toys). Our employees responded with great generosity.
This little cutie stopped by the office to donate toys for Toys For Tots
(she’s clearly on Santa’s good list!).
A Warm Holiday Welcome At Corporate Business Solutions!
Visitors at Corporate Business Solutions are greeted by the twinkling lights of our Christmas tree and fireplace mantle. Shout out to our incredible maintenance team, Tim, Ken and Oscar, for stringing lights, draping garland, as well as assembling the tree and all its decorations. They even wrapped the ‘gifts’ that are displayed underneath!
Tim places the large poinsettia on the lobby coffee table.

wishing a Happy Holiday to all!

Making Christmas Bright For A Local Family!
Lynn and Elizabeth bring in gifts to be wrapped!
At Corporate Business Solutions, we’re, once again, participating in the Salvation Army’s ‘Adopt A Family’ program. Elizabeth, first, contacted our Salvation Army, asking to adopt the neediest family that they had available. She then publicized the family’s ‘wish list’ via an email blast, asking for people to give funds or bring items for this family in lieu of exchanging gifts with their coworkers. She also recruited shopping volunteers to take advantage of up-coming ‘Black Friday’ sales.
