The Coastie Corner

A Tragic Day for North Carolina Coasties
 
 
This month’s Coastie Corner is dedicated to two different fatal incidents that occurred on the same day in late October. As always, the Coast Guard is humbled by what has been an outpouring of support from local North Carolina communities in response to these two events.

On early Friday morning, 23 October, a fire took place at a commercial residence complex in Buxton, NC where several active duty Coast Guard members lived. 
The results of this tragic fire have been heartbreaking to both the coastal North Carolina region as well as the Coast Guard at large. 

From Commander Sector North Carolina:
“The Coast Guard is a small organization. This tragic incident impacts not only this family, crew and station, but various members, families and units throughout the Coast Guard…. Members trained in critical incident stress management are currently… (supporting) those impacted by this tragedy. We are also working with the Coast Guard Foundation and other organizations to further support our members and families during this difficult time.”
On the same day, a U.S. Navy trainer aircraft crashed in Foley, Alabama. The two-person aircrew who lost their lives (were) identified as U. S. Navy LT Rhiannon Ross and U. S. Coast Guard ENS Morgan Garrett. ENS Garrett was 24 years old and hailed from Weddington, North Carolina. Garrett was a student aviator on a routine training flight that took off from Naval Air Station Whiting Field Milton, Florida.

Our thoughts are with all the families impacted by these two events.

We would like to thank the community and our ECPPS families for their support, flexibility, and understanding.

Elizabeth City Habitat For Humanity
Elizabeth City Habitat for Humanity is one of the rare affiliates in the United States that is classified as “all-volunteer.” That means we are always looking for more people to help. Most of our volunteers are in what we refer to as the “Medicare” generation and we need younger people to take up the roles necessary to run this affiliate.

Many of the tasks require very little time but are necessary. Here are just a few of the jobs that we need help with:

  • Board member-we meet once a month. Current openings include supervisor of our store, grant writer, and social media and publicity coordinator. We are looking for people with financial expertise and fundraising experience.
  • Family services-we need people to evaluate applications as they come in and determine their eligibility. This includes being available to do home visits once or twice a year
  • After closing coordinator-we need someone who will keep in touch with our homeowners after closing. This includes additional homeowner education to help them keep their homes well-maintained
  • Building-Our building committee is wonderful but needs some “young blood “ to help with construction

In addition to helping with these tasks, we always need financial support. There are several ways people can help support our mission to build simple, decent, affordable housing for qualified buyers:

  • Car donations-the Habitat Cars for Homes project helps us raise funds for construction. To donate a car, contact Norma James at Taylor Mueller Realty, 440 S. Hughes Blvd., 331-2233. She will need the title at the time of donation. If the car doesn’t run, you can also donate by calling 877-277-4344 for towing. We will receive money once the vehicle is sold.
  • Shaklee products-If you like Shaklee health, beauty and cleaning products, you can purchase them through our website and help us raise funds. Our Shaklee site is pws.shaklee.com/elizabethcityhabitatforhumanity
  • Payroll donation-Many employers will allow employees to designate charities. The money is automatically deducted each month and send to us.
  • T-shirts-We sell t-shirts with our logo in our store for $10.

Jane Elfring, 252-384-0115 for further information.
