Warmth for Winter Clothing Drive 2024
Give warmth to those in need this winter!
Recovering from a mental illness is difficult enough without struggling to satisfy basic needs like food, housing, and winter-ready clothes and footwear.
Many of our clients only have access to damaged, ragged or ill-fitting coats if they have one at all. We’ve even had clients arrive at our doorstep without shoes on cold winter days.
We need your help to ensure that every McClendon Center client can focus on their recovery without the threat of frostbite or deadly hypothermia.
By donating new or gently worn winter clothes, shoes, and accessories, you can help save someone’s life and increase their chance of recovery.
