Make a difference by joining the LBvision Volunteer Center, RSVP and Community Services Consortium in a community coat drive culminating on Make A Difference Day on October 23. The organizations are partnering with OSU sorority Alpha Chi Omega and local nonprofits to collect and distribute new and gently used winter coats. The coats will benefit homeless and low income persons in the two counties served.
Drop-off locations in Benton County include Community Services Consortium and Corvallis Senior Center. In Linn County, coats may be donated at Community Services Consortium, Albany Senior Center, Albany Public Library, and two Richards Cleaners locations.
Nonprofit partners receiving the coats will include Vina Moses and Old Mill Center in Corvallis. Albany Helping Hands Homeless Shelter, Christ Walk and Sweet Home Emergency Ministries are recipients in Linn County.
Richards Cleaners, located at 623 Lyons Street and 630 Hickory NW in Albany, will dry-clean the Linn County donated coats.
