Kittredge’s One Warm Coat Drive is on to help spread warmth to local families living in poverty and struggling to afford necessities this winter. 

You’re invited to drop off a gently used coat (children and adult sizes needed) inside one of two collection bins, just inside our font doors and in the K/1 room, through December 8th. 

Don't have a used coat to donate? Feel free to ask friends and family members to look inside their closets, and/or consider donating any of the following gently used items for children and adults:

• tops, bottoms, dresses and shoes

• hats, gloves and scarves; belts; rain gear and umbrellas

• towels and sheets; backpacks, duffel bags, purses or totes; blankets or sleeping bags

• St. Anthony’s will also accept donations of any new socks, undergarments, diapers and cosmetic/personal hygiene items.

Thank you to all who join this effort to help our neighbors stay safe and warm this winter! Questions or need a donation receipt? Email Adrianne Ford at adriannemarieford@gmail.com.
