On Monday, December 20, the Verona Foundation For Educational Excellence (VFEE) will kick off a coat drive to help people in our area. VFEE is partnering this year with Hopeful Hands Healing Hearts, a Newark-based nonprofit.
VFEE, which provides grants to support education in Verona’s public schools, is asking the community to drop off clean, gently worn coats at 6 Belleclaire Place in the Afterglow corner of town. All sizes, from child to adult, are needed.
If you cannot bring the coats over to the drop-off location, contact VFEE’s Maria Barona at [email protected] and she will arrange for a pickup.
The coat drive will run through Wednesday, January 12.
