The Salvation Army of Wake County is teaming up with Triangle Pond Management! Donate new or gently-used coats at our coat drive, located at Triangle Pond Management 3713 Overlook Rd., Raleigh N.C. 27616 between November 29, 2021, and January 1, 2022. There will be a marked donation drop point out-front of the Triangle Pond Management building. Needed items include new or gently-used coats or new scarves, hats, and gloves for all ages!
Why donate? Millions of Americans (1 in 6 people) are struggling to meet their most basic needs. With economic pressures, more and more families have to make the choice between eating just one meal a day or purchasing a warm coat for their family members.
Many municipalities are becoming increasingly stringent with their regard towards stormwater compliance and the conditions that they will no longer accept at the time of annual inspection. There are many factors that contribute to an SCM/BMP being in a state of compliance. One of the most predominant is the presence of healthy perennial turf coverage in and around the footprint of the SCM/BMP. Many annual inspections will fall in a window during the year (Winter/Summer) that is not conducive to the establishment of this perennial vegetation. In this case, the only way to remain in compliance is to implement costly repairs such as sodding and watering. Or attempting repeated seeding efforts which often do not produce full coverage year after year.
