Philanthropy

Triangle has chosen to help Ames and the surrounding communities in several ways. We serve at Reiman Gardens by volunteering for their Spirit in the Gardens Event which is put on for the youth in Ames and the surrounding area. We also participate in our national philanthropy, Habitat for Humanity. With many members in architecture and construction engineering building homes is a natural fit for our skills. Through the years we have sought out several larger construction projects and many of the foot bridges in Ames are Triangle built and maintained. We pride ourselves in our philanthropic efforts; they are a centerpiece of what it means to be a Triangle.
