Our volunteers are hard at work sorting coats, boots, scarves and other winter gear you’ve so generously donated for Share the Warmth!

Every item represents a neighbour helping another neighbour, and we still need more! That winter coat you no longer wear could give a local family one less thing to worry about this winter.

We’re welcoming clean, gently used winter coats, boots, vests, hats, mittens and scarves for adults and children. Please ensure items have working zippers and no rips or stains—ready for someone to wear and enjoy.
