Warm Coats and Warm Hearts

The final months of the year not only usher in the holidays and a bustling shopping season but also some of the year's coldest weather.

Many adults and children across the country struggle during the winter months because they are unable to afford proper cold-weather attire. With so many people struggling financial because of the recession, your coat and clothing donations matter this year more than ever.


"Good Morning America," together with retailer Burlington Coat Factory and the nonprofit organization One Warm Coat, once again want to help those in need with the 3rd annual Warm Coats & Warm Hearts Drive.


Last year we collected 177,339 coats and the first year of the drive we collected 175,125 coats. All the coats were distributed free of charge to those in need. This year we'd like to spread the warmth even farther and wider.








This is the season and what another great way to give back so if you have any coats please donate it is easy use the website for a map of a shop/dropbox location near you!

Thanks for givng! I had 7 coats donated and will be taking them to my local store this weekend! And it just gives me reason to shop which I love to do and even better with a discount!
