As Giving Tuesday arrives, November ends, and the weather turns cold in our region. According to Weather Atlas, average temperatures this time of year range from highs of 34°F (1.1°C) to 43°F (6.1°C) to lows of 16°F (-8.9°C) to 28°F (-2.2°C). And with consumer costs on the rise, a warm winter coat is not available to everyone.
But you can make a difference! WBGO's 13th Annual Coat Drive launches on Nov. 30, 2021, with two area drop-off locations:
- WBGO, 54 Park Place, Newark, NJ 07102
- Christoffer's Flowers & Gifts, 860 Mountain Avenue, Mountainside, NJ 07092
Please bring new or gently worn and clean coats during regular business hours. Coats will go to Essex County residents in need.
