Faith Lutheran Winter Coat Collection

With colder weather on the horizon, Faith Lutheran is getting ready by collecting winter coats, scarves, hats, and gloves for Market Street Mission’s Annual Coat Giveaway in Morristown. Faith has gathered these vital winter necessities for Market Street Mission for the past 30 years.

The local community is invited to help. If you have a new or gently worn winter coat that you would like to donate, please bring it to Faith Lutheran at 524 South Street, New Providence during office hours Monday – Thursday 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. We are also collecting new handmade or purchased warm winter hats, scarves, and winter insulated gloves and mittens.

Please note that no rain jackets, windbreakers, vests, or sweaters are needed-only coats. All sizes are requested in men’s, women’s and children’s with a special call for women’s and children’s sizes. 

The coat collection at Faith Lutheran will run through October 22. After that, the coats will be on their way to Market Street Mission in time for the big Giveaway, which is scheduled for Saturday, November 4 from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. at the Morristown Green. Anyone in need of a coat can come to the Giveaway.

Market Street Mission is a non-profit organization helping to fight alcoholism, drug abuse, hunger, and homelessness in Northern NJ.
