Winter Clothing Drive Begins For 46th Ward Schools

From Friends of the 46th Ward Schools:

"Let's help our 46th Ward students get ready for winter! Once again, we're partnering with Alderman James Cappleman to collect donations of NEW coats, hats, mittens, gloves, and scarves of all sizes (preschool to adult).

We're collecting items for the six schools in the 46th Ward:

Brennemann, Courtenay, Disney, Greeley, McCutcheon, and Uplift.

We'll be collecting items through December 15 so we can make deliveries to the schools before Winter Break.

Drop off items at Alderman Cappleman's office during regular business hours (4544 N. Broadway).
You can also shop for items from our Amazon Wish List (click on the link or search for "Friends of the 46th Ward Schools" and select "Hat & Mitten Drive") and your items will be delivered directly to Alderman Cappleman's office.

Please consider donating to our Facebook fundraiser:  (on Tuesday, November 28, all donations up to $1000 will be matched by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation).

You can also donate directly to Friends of the 46th Ward Schools through the Paypal link on our website.  Help us spread the word!
