EVENT INFO
Last year we had a great turn out for our Winter Clothing drive. All of the clothing went to St. James, our neighbor in K-town.
As the winter season approaches in Los Angeles, we are launching our 3rd Annual Winter Clothing Drive to support those in our community who may need warm clothing during the colder months.
The simple gift of a coat, hat, or gloves can make a significant difference in someone’s life. We are asking for your clean, untorn, and warm clothing donations.
The drop-off location for donations will be set up at ZCLA.
GET INVOLVED
Donate Winter Clothing: We are accepting donations of gently used or new winter clothing items such as coats, sweaters, hats, gloves, scarves, belts, and more. See the specific list below. Please ensure that the items are clean and in good condition. Men’s clothing in particular are always needed. You can also purchase much needed underwear directly for St. James here.
Volunteer: We need a few people to help sort clothing on both days and someone to drive the clothing over to St. James sometime during the week. It’s easy and fun and you can come and sort and also sit a period or two. Reach out to Kyogen Rosania by phone 917-412-3870, or email kyogen@jrosania.com if you would like to help during our collection days.
Thank you for your generosity and support!
Warm regards,
Kyogen
