The company's fourth year of coat drive participation yielded more than 2,000 donations
ATLANTA, Feb. 3, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Storage Post recently announced that it collected more than 2,000 donated coats for the 26th Annual New York Cares Coat Drive and the 19th Annual Jersey Cares Coat Drive. Both drives concluded in December after several weeks of donation efforts. In addition to the in-store donations, the company also delivered more than 1,000 coats collected by other community groups in its neighborhoods.
This was the fourth year that Storage Post partnered with the two organizations, offering its New Jersey and New York locations as collection drop-off sites for groups, as well as encouraging employees, customers and community members to donate. Donated coats were gently-used and new coats of all sizes that are now being distributed to needy men, women and children in greater metropolitan New York.
