Press Release – Norwalk Coat Drive

Once again this year, Christian Community Action, Norwalk (CCA) and Mayor Moccia are joining forces to bring the spotlight on a local problem and help solve it. Many people living in Norwalk are cold each winter. This year we will be collecting coats again and also collecting hats, mitts, boots and blankets. Donations will be accepted on Friday, Nov. 4, 2011 after 2 PM at the Norwalk Police Station on S. Main St. in SONO.

The coat distribution will happen on Saturday, Nov. 5, 2011 from 9 AM - 1:30 PM, also at the Police Station and any low income resident of Norwalk, New Canaan, Wilton, Weston and Westport who needs a coat or blanket should come. We will have adult and children’s coats, hats, mitts, boots and also a donation of new ladies shoes.

Last year we distributed about 1500 coats in 3 hours.

For more information or to volunteer to help, please contact CCA at 899-2485
