Share the Warmth Clothing Drive
October 4, 2024
Dear Parents & Students,
We will be holding our 15th “Share the Warmth” clothing drive at SACS on Thursday, October 17th, from 12-8pm and Friday, October 18th from 8am-1pm. This clothing drive has been a
HUGE success over the years and it has helped so many people in our community. THANK YOU to everyone who has graciously donated clothing over the years and to the many volunteers that continue to make the event a success. We could not do this without you!
Over the years, the community response for donations has been overwhelming and we have learned many things from our experiences. For example, we have received bags of mis-matched shoes, garbage within bags of clothing, and severely soiled and stained clothing items. We want to continue to offer this service to the community but we need your help.
“Share the Warmth” is a clothing drive for everyone in our community. This is how it works;
(1) We accept unsoiled, unstained, new or barely worn, clean clothing items to include: clothing of all sizes, shoes, coats, winter outdoor attire, and handbags/purses. PLEASE NO TOYS OR HOME DÉCOR. We are asking that you please launder clothing donated and label bags by size/gender (if possible) so that it makes it easier for us to set up for this event.
(2) Drop off recently laundered items at SACS from Monday-Friday (starting Monday, October 7th) between the hours of 7:30am and 3:30pm. If you have items to donate and cannot make it during these times, please call me at 757-8206 to set up a more convenient time. No donations will be accepted after October 16th.
(3) Come to SACS – Multipurpose room - on October 17-18th and take any/as many items that you want. Please feel free to bring your own garbage bags to fill!
This is a FREE clothing drive. Times are hard and clothing and such items can be expensive.
Please share your warmth with others this year and do what you can to support the clothing drive. Thank you in advance for your support with this initiative. (Your community thanks you too!) Call with questions or if you need additional information.
Thanks so much,
Jessica Greene
