Call for winter coats

Do you have coats in your hall closet you know you won’t be wearing this season, or coats the kids have outgrown?

Please bring coats, hats, scarves, sweatshirts and gloves to the Office of University Relations, and they will be donated to someone in need on Christmas Day. "So many of our friends and neighbors are unable to purchase coats this year, and Coast RTA and the American Red Cross ensure these folks get what they need, but this cannot happen without your help," says Debbie Conner.

Bring your warm items to Conner in Singleton 204F.

What is needed by Dec. 20: Men’s and women’s coats, hooded sweatshirts or pullovers, and gloves, scarves and  hats.

So far, a total of 230 coasts, including 56 children's coat, were donated to Coast RTA for distribution. Conner says the goal for CCU is 400 coats for this holiday season.
