WorkOne Kids’ Coat Drive Distribution Scheduled to Start Today

WorkOne is working hard this holiday season to show their continuous commitment to our communities.

Aside from the educational and occupational assistance they provide year round, during the month of November, the Knox and Winamac locations have been hosting kids’ coat drives to collect winter apparel to help local children in need this time of year.

Today is the scheduled start of distribution at the WorkOne in Knox. Coats can be picked up from 8 a.m. until noon and from 1 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. CT. Coat distribution at the Winamac location starts tomorrow and items can be picked up from 8 a.m. to noon and from 1 p.m. until 4:30 p.m. ET.

Youth Business Engagement Specialist Kathi Holem said the coats they collected this year were geared towards sizes ranging from infants up to around third grade students. There are a limited number of donated items so call ahead of time if you have any questions about availability.

The numbers and addresses for both locations are listed below:

Knox – 574-772-6882 – 1913 South Heaton Street
Winamac – 574-946-6300 – 123 North Market Street
