A little switch from Sample Sales this Week…You see, the first sale on the list featured exotic skins and the second? Mink coats. Yuk and bigger yuk.
Enter, New York Cares Annual Coat Drive -
Did you know that 90% of homeless adults need a new, warm coat each winter because they have no place to keep one over the summer months? But it’s not just homeless people who need our help; thousands of New Yorkers each year are forced to make a choice between buying a winter coat and putting food on the table, or meeting other basic survival needs.
New York Cares collects nearly 70,000 gently used winter coats each December and distributes them to thousands of men, women, and children who would otherwise be cold.
Donate your gently used coats (between December 1 – 31) at the following locations:
Weekdays 7:30 a.m. – 9:30 a.m.* (Morning commute only)
Grand Central Terminal (Graybar Passage)
