OAK BROOK, Ill., Oct. 28, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — For the 12th consecutive year CD A Price Cleaner and the Infant Welfare Society of Chicago are teaming up to help local kids stay warm this winter with Coats for Kids.
Coats for Kids is a charitable coat donation program that benefits underserved children and families at Angel Harvey Family Health Center in Chicago. The program expires Saturday October 29th to Saturday 12 November 2022.
How it works: CD One Price Cleaners, Chicagoland’s premier dry cleaning and laundry franchise, collects donated, gently used coats at all 36 locations in Illinois and Indiana, including Chicago City and suburbs. Donated coats will be cleaned at CD One locations and picked up by the Infant Welfare Society of Chicago.
“CD One is passionate about providing underserved youth in our community with appropriate clothing to survive Chicago’s cold winters,” said Jonathon Reckles, vice president of marketing at CD One Price Cleaners. “We are delighted to once again be working with the Infant Welfare Society to get these coats to those who need them most.”
Customers are encouraged to donate children’s and adult sized coats and jackets.
Before the pandemic, CD One and IWS partnered to raise 1,439 coats in 2020. This year CD One and IWS want to come together more than 1,500.
“We are excited to be partnering again with CD One Price Cleaners – and celebrating the 12th anniversary of our partnership – in this year’s fall coat promotion,” said Liz Berglund and Maria Enright, co-presidents of Auxiliary, in a joint statement. “Providing these coats to children and families in need will make a huge difference in their lives, especially in this financially challenging environment.”
Coats for Kids donations are never wasted as over 200 new patients enroll with the Infant Welfare Society each month.
