Winter coat drive runs through April 30

Now that winter's finally done, the Woodfield Area Children's Organization wants you to clean out your closet. WACO's End of Winter Coat drive runs through April 30 at three locations.

Area dry cleaners will accept your gently-used winter coats, clean them and then distribute them to disadvantaged families in the Northwest suburbs and Kane County. There is a big need for this, especially for children's coats.

Please drop off coats at Corinium Cleaners, 2325 W. Schaumburg Road in Schaumburg; Bharti's Tailors at 1182 E. Lake St. in Hanover Park; or Norgetown Cleaners at 156 E. Lake St. in Bloomingdale. For more information, contact Geri McCall-Barrath at geri313@comcast.net or (847) 891-9214.
