Organizations holding coat drives?

Any information on what organizations need winter coats for the needy?

This is on the calendar specifically for Nov 2, but I think the drive is going all the way into the first week in December. There is a link for more info and other drop off sites:

Trinity would take them as well. In past years I believe Cub Scouts have done collections, but I think that's usually a bit later in the year.


This Saturday, the Hackettstown Rotary Club will be collecting winter coats for the Jersey Cares Coat Drive outside Panera Bread on Rt. 57. 9am - 1pm. Those coats go to families in need here in Jersey.

There is also a coat drive going on at the RE/MAX Town & Valley office. The office is located in the Panther Valley Mall- Rt 517


Thanks all. Wont donate to Trinity, sorry. As for Saturday, I work and wont be able to get there. I will continue to look. Thanks again.

Are the coats adult or children sizes botheredyuu2? I know Willow grove elementary school does a collection for the children that go to that school. It's sad how many kids in our own town don't have coats.

Mt. Olive Twsp.. is doing a coat and blanket drive. I've seen signs on Rt. 46 about it. I think donations are at municipal bdg and library as well as other places.

Botheredbyuu2, would you like me to come by and pick them up from you? I could drop them off on Saturday with the Rotary.

I noticed at the ReMax office at Panther Valley there were 2 boxes full of donated coats. Don't know which group they are collecting for.

I believe the High School key club is having a coat drive.


Was at Hackettstown Post Office today, they had a box for coats in the lobby.
