With winter closing in are there any coat drives in the area? My wife has a couple she'd like to donate.


Well isn't your wife just the sweetest? Good for her.

I haven’t been able to track down any official coat drives yet, but if that coat's just burning a hole in your pocket, there are a couple organizations that are always looking for coats to help their clients. 

Homeless Gear’s street outreach delivers survival supplies (coats included) to homeless men and women on the streets of Fort Collins. Learn more at www.homelessgear.org.  

Mary’s Closet, a ministry of Saint Joseph Catholic Church, is also in need of winter coats, jackets and vests (mostly mens), men’s jeans, sleeping bags, mats or pads and backpacks. Donations can be dropped off at Parish Center, 101 N. Howes St., or be deposited in the single red bin by the back door in the church parking lot after hours.

I'll add more to this list as they come up. If anyone is running a coat drive, leave the info in the comments section.

And seriously, how big are your pockets that you can fit a coat in them?
