This winter, New York Cares and the NYPD will be teaming up again for the Annual Coat Drive which runs through December 31, 2018. On their 30th Anniversary, alongside with the NYPD, New York Cares will proudly deliver its 2 millionth coat to those in need. No New Yorker should have to endure the winter cold because they cannot afford a coat. This city-wide effort aims to collect over 100,000 coats this year, so we need your help! Be proactive, dive into your closets, and donate at your nearest precinct (61 precinct)!
