2023 Coat Drive

It's what we do!

Thanks to the great generosity of our Cresswind neighbors, our Veterans Charity annual Coat Drive was
a tremendous success! In just one week, we collected approximately 177 large bags of coats, winter
clothes, blankets, and towels, plus five boxes of books, coloring books and CDs. This is around 118 bags
more than last year!


With a focus on the homeless, we were able to provide clothes to Hall County area Veterans in need so
they could go to their houses of prayer or look proper while applying for jobs, as well as dress warmly
this coming winter. And the books and coloring books will be enjoyed by Veterans who are in the
hospital inpatient program.


A special thank you to Dave and Jamie Dittmeier for providing the leadership for this record endeavor
and to all the volunteers who gathered, bagged, and loaded up all the donated items for the six
ministries and organizations who are distributing them to our needy Veterans and their families. 
Thank you to Barb Langhans and Ted Marble for furnishing a pizza lunch to all our helpers. (Picture of our
