Winter Wear Clothing Drive
Noor is collecting gently-used/new winter wear for New Circles – a Toronto-based charity dedicated to providing basic necessities to those living in poverty. According to the organization, demand for winter-appropriate clothing is currently five times greater than supply – meaning that they have had to turn away clients without winter gear.
The organization is asking specifically for the following items:
-Adult winter coats (particularly plus sizes)
-Children’s winter jackets, snow pants, and snow suits
-Adult and children’s winter boots
-Adult and children’s winter accessories (i.e. hats, mitts, gloves, scarves)
To participate –
Drop new/gently-used items from the above list to the collection box in the lobby of Noor Cultural Centre, anytime during the following dates/times:
- Mondays November 20, 27; December 4 : 10 am – 3 pm
- Tuesdays November 21, 28; December 5 : 10 am – 3 pm
