Blackstone Coat Drive

By: Wendy Tavares, Jahayra Navarro, & Mellody Da Cruz

What is a coat drive?

A coat drive is basically collecting coats for
people in need of it.

How can I help?

Before Nov. 27, 2015 bring in coats that are not being used.
Must be in good conditions. (no holes, rips, stains, etc.)

Where I drop off my coats?

Theres boxes around the school when you have a chance
place the coat in the box. At the end of the week we will
pick them up.

Why are we holding this drive after

Thanksgiving?
Since black Friday is the day after Thanksgiving, many
families purchase new jackets and discard their old ones.
This is when we step in and ask for the Blackstone
community to help us, help the less fortunate.

If you have any question about the drive dont

hesitate to reach out to Jahayra, Wendy, or
Mellody.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME!
