[Durham INC] Collect trash, support a tree

[Pat Carstensen]

The North Carolina Wildlife Federation (NCWF) is hosting a statewide Trees4Trash (T4T) volunteer cleanup effort May 11-17, to help protect wildlife from trash ingestion, strangulation and entrapment.

Register for the Trees4Trash Neighborhood Challenge at https://myemail.constantcontact.com/Thought-you-might-like-to-participate.html?soid=1101317237948&aid=ago3ImLCOSA

The cleanup effort is a way for residents to practice safe social distancing while removing trash from their neighborhoods and preventing it from hurting wildlife, littering communities and flowing into waterways.

NCWF encourages residents to safely pick up trash with a grabber while wearing gloves and a mask as they walk outdoors in their local communities. Each bag collected is estimated to hold 25 pounds of trash and will contribute towards the organization’s goal of collecting 5000 pounds during the challenge. For every 25 pounds of trash collected and reported to NCWF, the organization will plant a tree.

Participants can post their photos and tag NCWF on Facebook (@NCWildlifeFederation), Instagram (@NCWildlifeFed), Twitter (@NCWF) or send them by email to tara at ncwf.org. Learn more about Trees4Trash or register for the event.
