Final Push for Donations: Office of Homeless Solutions 2024 Coat Drive

What

The Office of Homeless Solutions (OHS) invites you to cover its 2024 Coat Drive. People are asked to bring new or clean gently-used adult-sized winter coats for donation to individuals experiencing homelessness. This event is in partnership with Dallas Public Library and with the support of the OHS Friends Group. The coat drive runs through December 31, 2024. Coats can be dropped off at participating Dallas branch libraries and Smoky Rose Restaurant, with a goal of collecting 1000 winter coats for our unsheltered neighbors. OHS is 600 coats short of meeting their goal.  

Note: Only coats will be accepted at these locations.
