One Warm Coat
October 6th is National One Warm Coat Day!
Every $1 donated warms 1 person! If you donate on October 6th the donation is matched, doubling your impact.
When will this take place?
The coat drive will run from October 2-23, 2022. You can also provide items directly by meeting up with a Valley Champion.
Why are we telling you this?
The PMI Phoenix Chapter Social Good Team needs You! We see a huge need in our community and will like you to join us in doing our part to keep some people warm this year.
As of January 2020, Arizona estimated 10,979 people like you and me experiencing homelessness each day, as reported by Continuums of Care to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Due to Covid, there were no counts taken in 2021, however as of March 2022, AZ News reported a 35% increase, with over 5,000 more people experiencing homelessness since 2020.
What are we doing?
The PMI Phoenix Chapter Social Good Team is partnering with Arizona Housing, Inc. for a coat drive. We will have two coat drives, a virtual coat drive to raise funds to address this plight and a physical coat drive receiving winter outerwear to warm the challenged in our community.
How will this work?
For the virtual coat drive, we would send out a web link via phxpmi.org to One Warm Coat donate funds for this cause. For the physical coat drive, we are collecting outer coats, sweaters, sweatshirts, caps and scarfs for men, women, and children with drop off locations around the valley. zone map
