Do you have some extra coats in your closet that you could donate? They could be used by adults and children in Wood County to stay warm this winter.
The Salvation Army of Wood County is hosting its annual “Warm the Family” program by collecting new and gently used coats for families and children in need.
For its 41st year, Long’s Sanitary Cleaners is the sponsor of the “Warm the Family” program by dry cleaning all the donated gently used coats. Donations are needed for both males and females, all ages and sizes.
Please donate your gently used coats as soon as possible. Early donations will help children and adults stay warm yet this fall season, though donations can be made through Nov. 30.
The need is real, and your generosity is greatly appreciated.
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, please contact Earlene Kilpatrick, Salvation Army volunteer, at 419-601-0976.
Coats will be available to qualified applicants at 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.
