Give the Gift of Warmth: Join Wilton Congregational’s Coat Drive

As winter approaches, Wilton Congregational Church invites you to join in its Annual Coat Drive. From Sunday, Nov. 2 through Tuesday, Nov. 4, the church is collecting gently used coats and outerwear to help keep our neighbors in Wilton and surrounding towns warm this season.

Donations can be dropped off in Pilgrim Hall at the rear entrance of the church (70 Ridgefield Rd.). Bring your used coats — and even scarves and hats — anytime, from Sunday, Nov. 2 at 11 a.m. until Tuesday, Nov. 4 at 4 p.m.

• Drive around in back of the sanctuary and bring your donated coats right into Pilgrim Hall, through the door with the covered porch.
• After hours, simply leave them in the plastic bins located under the covered porch.

Your generosity will benefit several local organizations, including Bridgeport Rescue Mission, Open Doors Shelter, Person to Person, Pivot Ministries, and Wilton Social Services. Any size is welcome; men’s, women’s, and children’s coats are all needed.

For over 60 years, Wilton Congregational Church Coat Drive has helped keep people in our community warm and comfortable as winter sets in. Take a look in your closet for the coats you no longer need. You’ll be helping someone stay warm as the days get colder.

Bring a coat, spread the warmth, and be part of this community tradition of caring. Questions? Call the church office at 203.762.5591. For more information about Wilton Congregational Church, visit the Wilton Congregational online.
