Winter Warmth Drive

The Winter Warmth Drive is ending THIS WEEK, on Nov. 3. t is a Des Moines metro-wide effort to collect new or gently used coats, hats, gloves, scarves, blankets, snow pants, and snow boots. These items are provided to the homeless or near homeless, refugees new to Iowa, and schools around the metro with students who come from families that are not able to afford proper attire for Iowa winters. Infant through adult-sized items are all needed!

The Drake chapters of the Christian Legal Society and Christian Pharmacists Fellowship International are leading the Winter Warmth Drive on campus. Donation boxes are located in Olmsted, Old Main, Aliber Hall (newly added!), Cartwright Hall, the Drake Legal Clinic, Harvey-Ingham, and Cline. For more information, please visit winterwarmthdrive.org or contact matthew.lepke@drake.edu or zoe.zumbach@drake.edu.
