The Bandera County Democratic Club recently announced that the fourth annual county-wide Coat Drive is now underway.
Residents can drop off new, and or, gently worn coats, sweaters, hats, and gloves for children and adults at the county’s three public libraries in Bandera, Lakehills and Medina.
“There is a large need for this yearly campaign in our community; I would like to thank all county residents for their willingness to get involved and help our neighbors in need,” said Club President Essie Stewart.
The drive benefits the hundreds of patient families served each year by the Arthur Nagel Community Clinic.
This is the fourth year in a row the club has partnered with the libraries to collect the warm clothing from the drop-off locations and deliver it to the Event Center on the Village of Hope campus.
“I know we all feel that if we can have a part in making someone’s life a little easier, a little brighter, it makes our community a better place for all — especially as we approach the holidays,” said Nagel Clinic Executive Director Chuck Lutke.
