Donate a coat: Riley is collecting for 112 families
Coats, boots, hats and gloves are needed before the first frost.
🇺🇸 Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States1,951 views
I coordinate donations at the Liberty Mosque in Pittsburgh. Every year around this time we hear from families who have nothing warm for their children, and this year demand has more than doubled.
We're collecting clean, gently used or new coats, boots, hats, gloves and scarves in sizes 4-12. If you're in Pittsburgh, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Liberty Mosque on Thursday between 9am and 2pm.
If you're elsewhere, you may offer to sponsor a coat through a local shop - message in the comments and we can coordinate.
Items go to families directly and the rest to the the Liberty Mosque clothing bank, which is open to everyone.
Glad we found this place.
