We can all make a difference! 🤝Now is a great time to donate gently used or new winter coats, hats, gloves, winter boots, and other cold-weather essentials to help keep children and families warm this winter.

Every donation matters. Every coat makes a difference. Let's come together to make sure our neighbors can face the colder months with warmth, comfort, and dignity. 💜

For some families, having the appropriate seasonal clothing can make a big difference. A winter jacket becomes more than just a winter jacket. Your donations can help ensure a child stays warm this winter and doesn't miss out on making a snowman with their friends. ⛄

Thank you to New Balance for donating over 2,000 shoes and 1,000 shirts, and for their ongoing support throughout the year! 👟👕

Shoes are a critical item for back-to-school, as a well-fitting pair of shoes can make all the difference in a child's confidence in the hallways and in the classroom.

Thanks again, New Balance!

This week's drop in temperature is a reminder of the cold winter ahead. As we begin distributing winter coats, snow boots, and other essentials, we are highlighting our need for hats and gloves, so every child can stay warm and enjoy playtime in the snow. You can help prepare them for winter by heading to our Amazon wishlist now! ❄️ https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/2LC41W9EWU3ZQ/ref=hz_ls_biz_ex

A winter coat is much more than a piece of clothing to keep you warm; it is a confidence booster and an opportunity for kids to play with their friends in the snow. ❄️⛄ Please consider donating any gently used or new winter coats to help a child in need not only stay warm this winter but also allow them to focus on being a kid.

Our Service Partners are a big part of making sure children and families get the essentials they need, when they need them most.

At our Boston Giving Factory, we work with more than 280 Service Partners who order clothing, diapers, and other essentials based on the needs of the children and families they serve.

From there, our team prepares and packs each order at the Giving Factory, and our Service Partners pick them up and deliver them directly to families in their communities.

For families, something as simple as a fresh pack of diapers or a new outfit can provide immediate relief and remind them; they’re not alone.

Together, our Service Partners help us distribute more than 5 million essential items every year in Massachusetts.

We’re incredibly grateful to our service partners who help make this work possible! 💜
