Donate Coats at Dearborn and Get a Free Coffee and Donut

The coats will benefit families affected by Hurricane Sandy and many of which are still displaced from their homes.

Bring a new or gently used coat to Dearborn Market this weekend and you'll get a free coffee and apple cider doughnut with each drop off.

Dearborn has partnered with Bridges to bring coats to children in Monmouth and Ocean Counties whose families were affected by Hurricane Sandy and many of which are still displaced from their homes. 

Bridges began 25 years ago and is named for the place it began – under the Brooklyn Bridge. Today, with the help of over 1,500 volunteers each year, Bridges delivers 100,000 brown bag meals, 13,000 pairs of socks, 9,000 toiletry kits, 2,800 gallons of soup, and literally tons of donated clothing to 500 people each week in New York City, Newark and Irvington, NJ. Our doors are open to those in need in Summit every Friday. Through its weekly Runs (outreach visits), Bridges provides necessities to those in need with compassion and respect fulfilling its mission to bring the housed and homeless together in community.
