“We’re asking for donations of items that provide warmth to help individuals in our community stay comfortable during the cold months ahead,” said Candace Harless, the event coordinator. “Your generosity can make a big difference for someone in need.”
Donations of all sizes, including children’s sizes, are greatly appreciated. The collected items will be distributed to warming stations and organizations supporting individuals facing homelessness, financial hardships, and other challenges during the winter season.
About the Drive:
The Heads, Hands, and Toes Drive is a community-based initiative organized by local volunteers, aiming to provide essential clothing to individuals who might not have access to proper winter wear. All donations stay within the Princeton area, directly benefiting people in our community.
