Donate to the Warm Coat drive

By Toni Thunen

After a year hiatus since the last drive, there will be another coat drive and I hope you will be part of the effort to help keep those in need of warmth during the coming winter season.

The drive will start October 14 and continue until December 13—ample time for you to look in your closets for coats and jackets that are extra or you have been thinking of replacing.

Please donate only items that are clean and not in need of repair. Men’s and women’s jackets and coats requested, but we will also accept jackets and coats no longer used by grandkids as well.

The location of the drive is 8345 Riesling Way in The Villages. If you have donations but are unable to drive, please call Toni at 408 809-4856 for pickup.
