Anyone in the community with a need is welcome at our Coat & Clothing (& More!) Giveaway. We have no income or proof of residency requirements. Kids are welcome but it is not necessary to bring them in order to choose items for them. This event is held in our warehouse, above the church.
We spend all year collecting new and used clothing and other items that are still good, useful, and clean so that they can be shared with anyone in the community in need. We accept donations any day that we are open - most Mondays through Fridays from 8:30-2:30 as well as Sunday mornings. If you have items to donate and we are not here, give us a call at 330-549-9408 to arrange a drop off time or put bags under the awning at the back of our warehouse above the church and we will find them. Items we accept include: Coats ~ Jackets ~ Raincoats & Umbrellas Snow Pants ~ Gloves/Mittens ~ Hats Scarves ~ Baby Items ~ Shoes/Boots Clothing for All Ages, Sizes, & Seasons Purses/Bags ~ Halloween Costumes Household Items ~ Kitchen Items ~ Tools Stuffed Animals ~ Toys & Games ~ Books.... Any item you think might help someone or brighten their day, as long at is clean, usable, & in good working order. Thanks!
New Addition Coming to the Giveaway In order to help bring a bit of assistance to our area, we're trying something new this year and we are starting early to collect as much as possible! So, please keep your eyes peeled for sales on some non-perishable staples and help us stock up on items to fill our Pantry Staples Bags. You may also donate monetarily and we will use that to shop for needed items. We've set an ambitious goal of filling 500 bags with the following items:
peanut butter (or other nut butter) / tuna canned veggies / mac & cheese pasta & sauce / canned fruit / granola bars
If we start shopping now, find some good sales, and are careful to check for expiration dates that are well past October 21, 2023, we might be able to send a bag of food home with every person who attends the Giveaway! Let's dream BIG and work together for our community!! Important Note: If you find a good sale on non-perishables with expiration dates before October, please remember that Heroes & Halos is giving away items on June 24th!
