This Valentine’s Day, we’re excited to host our very first in-kind donation drive for the Eno River Association! We’re collecting practical, much-needed supplies that will support Spring stewardship workdays, Creek Week events, Wildflower hikes, environmental education programs, and more across the Eno River Basin.
From field gear and volunteer snacks to educational materials and office basics, these everyday items directly support the people and programs that care for the Eno River. Let your love Flow for the Eno with a generous gift.
Roses are red, rivers are blue—
Your thoughtful gifts help nature renew.
What We Need
Spring is one of our busiest and most joyful seasons. As we prepare for workdays, guided hikes, and hands-on learning opportunities, our team relies on essential supplies to ensure each program is safe, engaging, and fulfilling. Whether you’re passionate about land stewardship, environmental education, or supporting our daily operations, there’s a meaningful way to help.
We’ve compiled a list of our most-needed items and created a Wishlist to make giving simple. Choose what you’d like to gift, check out as usual, and it will ship directly to us—ready to be put to work by our staff and volunteers.
Some items on our list were not available on Amazon, so we’ve linked them separately in the tabs below. You’re also welcome to purchase any of the requested items locally instead—just mail your gift or drop it off during our office hours.*
