UGM is partnering with Burlington Coat Factory again this year for the Warm Coats/Warm Hearts Campaign.
If you’ve got a coat or two just taking up space in the back of your closet, bring them to Burlington Coat Factory, 5830 N Division Street in Spokane. That’s it. You’re done. (A little bonus: contact a store employee when you bring in your donation for a 10% discount on your entire purchase.)
Burlington Coat Factory will collect the coats, and UGM will distribute them free of charge to those in need. Drive runs from November 1, 2013 through January 20, 2014.
Do you tweet? When you drop off your coats, take a picture of yourself at the donation box, post it to Twitter using the hashtag #WarmCoats and include our handle @ugmspokanecda. You could appear on Good Morning America!
