Description
This organization can help congregations provide coats to people in need while promoting service and environmental sustainability. One Warm Coat aims to raise awareness of people’s need for coats while promoting community service and keeping materials out of landfills. To support these goals, One Warm Coat partners with coat manufacturers to collect extra and irregular inventory and delivers those coats to children and adults in need by partnering with nonprofits. One Warm Coat also helps nonprofit partners host coat drives and engage in other service projects.
