Do you have gently used coats just taking up space in your closets? You could donate these coats to the Salvation Army of Wood County annual “Warm the Family” program.
The program will run from Oct. 8 to Nov. 8. Coat donations are needed for men, women and children – all sizes.
Simply take your gently used coats to one of the Long’s Sanitary Cleaners locations listed below. For its 43nd year, Long’s Sanitary Cleaners is the sponsor of the “Warm the Family” program by donating the dry-cleaning costs of all the gently used coats received.
People are asked to donate coats as soon as possible. Early donations will help children and adults stay warm yet this fall season, though donations are being accepted through Nov. 8.
Donated gently used coats can be dropped off at the following locations:
- Longs Sanitary Cleaners, 345 N. Maple St., Bowling Green.
- Sanitary Cleaners Inc., 225 Golden Gate Plaza., Maumee.
If you, your business, church, or organization would like to donate new coats, hats, gloves, and scarves, to the “Warm the Family” program, overseen by the Salvation Army of Wood County, contact Earlene Kilpatrick, Salvation Army volunteer, at 419-601-0976.
Coats will be available to qualified applicants during the Salvation Army’s annual Thanksgiving and Christmas distributions, and throughout the winter season. For more information on receiving a coat or to learn more about the Salvation Army, and its annual Thanksgiving and Christmas distributions, contact the Bowling Green Service Center at 419-352-5918.
