Share The Warmth, Donate A Coat: 5th Annual Douglass Park Coat Drive

Share The Warmth, Donate A Coat: 5th Annual Douglass Park Coat Drive

November 8, 2023 (October 22, 2024) // Riot Fest

Riot Fest is joining forces with the Douglass Park Advisory Council for the 5th annual Let’s Share The Warmth Coat Drive. Starting today, November 8th, 2023 we’ll be accepting new and gently used coats for children and adults, as well as gloves, hats, and scarves. The coat drive ends on January 15th, 2024.

If you have a gently used coat at home, or can purchase new coats, what are you waiting for? Besides good karma, you also get the added benefit of feeling good about yourself for helping others. That, my friends, is priceless.

New or gently used winter items—coats, gloves, hats, scarves, and other winter accessories—are accepted, in both child and adult sizes for all ages.

Coats will be distributed to the Douglass Park community on January 19th, 2024 at the Douglass Park Fieldhouse.
