The

is collecting coats and other supplies for the victims of Hurricane Sandy.

I have a number of coats in fact 4 womens coats that we gathered in a bag today, plus one adult male coat and 4 children's coats.

The black leather coat is the first leather coat I bought myself and it's till in great shape as is the faux fur.

The brown jacket is a Jones New York coat and was one of my favorites but only worn a few times. It was a TJ Maxx find.

We will drop it off this week .

We still need coats and other winter accessories to distribute, if you have any bring them by CSM.   We do not know when the next truck will leave with supplies, so you are welcome to bring coats anytime!
