One Warm Coat Drive


This is one of my favorite charities, because it's easy to give and it makes a difference.

If you have extra winter coats hanging in your closet, or can buy some easily, you're good. Help out someone who could use a warm coat this winter, donating your coat through a One Warm Coat Drive. Past national coat drives have brought in 500,000 coats in one season, given out through charitable organizations (the donation center chooses the organization).

Click here for a list of Bay Area One Warm Coat Locations. Make sure to scroll through the pages, so you can find one near you, and check the dates!

On fun upcoming event to collect coats is at Epi Center Med Spa in San Francisco. On Tuesday, November 17th from 6-8 p.m. they're hosting a drop-in drive for St. Anthony's Foundation. Bring a coat for men, women or children. They're offering $50 gift cards for services at Med Spa for you and any friends you bring. Plus they're having a free raffle, some discounted treatments and products, and wine/food.

To attend, email rsvp@epicentermedspa.com. They're at 450 Sutter, Suite 800.
