Help to sort coats recently donated during the 30th Annual Jersey Cares Coat Drive.
This MLK Event will take place on Sunday, January 18, 2026.
For the past 29 years, The Jersey Cares Coat Drive has mobilized the collection and distribution of thousands of "gently used" winter coats to men, women, children, and infants in need. Last year, Jersey Cares collected more than 20,000 coats throughout the state of New Jersey. The generous people of the region are the reason Jersey Cares is able to provide the most vulnerable in our state with these necessary items. Therefore, we certainly do appreciate everyone who was able to donate.
Coat Sorting involves:
- Sorting through all coats in the container and organizing them into categories.
- Bagging coats by 5 into categories.
- Keeping inventory.
- Supporting with clean-up.
- Dressing warm!
*This event will be outdoors, so please remember to dress warmly.
