WLF Conducts 3rd Annual Coat Drive

Billerica, MA

W. L. French Excavating Corporation will be conducting its 3rd Annual Coat Drive beginning October 26th, 2011 through November 18th, 2011.

Here is an opportunity to make sure that nobody goes without such a basic necessity as a coat this winter.

W. L. French Excavating Corporation is collecting clean, gently used coats and jackets as part of the One Warm Coat community service project. Coats of all shapes sizes are welcome. One Warm Coat is dedicated to distributing reusable coats, free of charge, directly to local children and adults. The program is an easy way for you and your family to pass along coats and jackets that you no longer need.

W. L. French Excavating Corporation has made donating a coat simple. Just bring your clean, gently used coats and jackets to our main office location at 3 Survey Circle North Billerica, MA from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM from October 26th through November 18th, 2011. Then your W. L. French Excavating Corporation will take care of the rest. All donated coats will be given to Rosie's Place, Cradles to Crayons and the New England Shelter for Homeless Veteran's for distribution to local people in need.

One Warm Coat is national non-profit organization that supports and encourages coat drives. It helps individuals, groups, companies and organizations across the country collect coats and deliver them to local agencies that distribute the coats free to people in need. More than one million coats have been provided to those in need at no cost since its inception in 1992.

Last year W. L. French Excavating Corporation collected nearly 75 coats. The goal this year is to reach 100 coats for men, women and children in need. We appreciate your generosity and helping ensure that as many people as possible will stay warm this winter with your help.
