Winter Coat Collection – Help Keep Our Community Warm! ❄️

As temperatures begin to fall, the need for warm clothing becomes increasingly urgent for many individuals and families in the community. In response to this pressing concern, the Kennett Square Police Department is partnering with the Maternal and Child Health Consortium for an impactful Coat Drive aimed at supporting local families who may be struggling this winter season. The initiative encourages community members to participate by donating new or gently used winter apparel, including coats, gloves, scarves, socks, and hats for both children and adults.

The Coat Drive runs until November 3, 2025, providing a vital opportunity for residents to contribute to this important cause. Donations can be dropped off at the Kennett Square Police Department, located at 600 S. Broad Street, with collection hours from 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM, Monday through Friday. Every item collected not only offers warmth but also fosters a sense of community solidarity and care during the cold months ahead.

Winter can be especially challenging for those who lack adequate clothing, and this initiative seeks to alleviate hardship by ensuring that every local family has access to the essentials needed to stay warm. The involvement of the local police department in this effort highlights the commitment to community welfare and active engagement in addressing social issues.

Donating is a straightforward yet profound way to make a difference in someone’s life. Individuals with extra winter gear that remains in good condition are encouraged to participate in this charitable effort. The impact of such donations can ripple through the community, helping not just to provide warmth but also to build a stronger, united Kennett Square.

By coming together as a community, we can make significant strides in combating the cold during the winter season, ensuring that no one is left vulnerable to the harsh elements. Your participation in the Coat Drive can help make a difference, offering comfort and support to those in need within our local area. Together, let us ensure that everyone stays safe and warm this winter.
