<div dir="ltr">Hello Everyone, <div><br></div><div>We at ‘Meet the Need’ would like to take a moment to explain our ‘Winter Clothing Project’ and how you can help us get warm winter clothing to those in need. </div><div>
<br></div><div>THE WINTER CLOTHING PROJECT </div><div><br></div><div>Each year, money is provided to agencies that serve the homeless population to purchase and provide winter clothing. However, those who are marginally housed (living in temporary housing, subsidized housing or rooming houses) are not able to benefit from this service. Meet the Need’s Winter Clothing Project began in December 2008, after the need for winter clothing in this community was recognized. </div>
<div><br></div><div>Through this initiative, we provide new and gently used winter clothing items to individuals sixteen years of age or older living in marginalized housing. Although the main focus of this program is collecting and distributing winter coats, other articles of clothing we receive as donations include: winter boots, hats, scarves, mittens and gloves. </div>
<div><br></div><div>HOW YOU CAN HELP </div><div><br></div><div>If you know of anyone sixteen years of age or older living in marginalized housing who is in need of winter clothing, please email us at <a href="mailto:contact@meettheneed.ca">contact@meettheneed.ca</a> with their first name, gender and clothing sizes. We will then coordinate a time for us to deliver the clothing item(s) to an employee/volunteer within your organization. </div>
<div><br></div><div>If you have any other questions about Meet the Need or our Winter Clothing Project, we’d be happy to answer them. We look forward to working with you in the future. </div><div><br></div><div>Sincerely, </div>
