WINTER COATS
This is a great project for the months of October-November. This project can include all winter wear items.

This drive is for essential household items that our residents need when they transition to more permanent housing. Many of these items cannot be purchased with a LINK card, such as cleaning products and tools for the kitchen, bath/toilets and floors.
