Coat drive at an.mé on 9th Street



Now through Dec. 6, an.mé, the boutique for kids and families on Ninth Street, is holding a coat drive for WIN (Women in Need), a social-services agency that helps women and children with housing and other critical needs.

Via the EVG inbox:

This year they are asking for preloved or new coats for kids ages 3-16 and winter accessories, same age range.

We have a collection box in the store and are offering anyone who brings in coats 15 percent off their purchase from us that day. They can even purchase items from us to donate and receive the 15 percent off that purchase.

The shop is at 328 E. Ninth St between First Avenue and Second Avenue.
