Dear Editor,
St. Mark’s Episcopal Church is currently collecting clean, gently used winter coats, jackets, and vests for our friends and neighbors in need—hats, gloves, and mittens welcome, too. Once sorted, these will be taken to New Canaan’s department of Health & Human Services, which will distribute them to individuals and families just before Christmas.
There will be drop boxes in three locations on the St. Mark’s campus—outside the Lion’s Den Bookstore, in the hallway outside Morrill Hall and at the entrance to the Church House in the rear. All are labeled “Doing Good: 2015 Winter Coat Drive.”
All donations must be received by Sunday, Dec. 6. Thank you for your generosity and care for our neighbors in need.
Sincerely,
Jenn Hladick
St. Mark’s Outreach Commission
