Since its inception in 1992, One Warm Coat has helped to collect and distribute more than one million coats.
The partnership between the Police Department and One Warm Coat was established this year by Corporal Jessica Mercer of the Community Services Division. Through Corporal Mercer’s efforts, over 600 coats have been collected for distribution to community members in need this season.
