Winter Warmth Drive
Across the Inland Empire, unhoused individuals sleep through freezing nights without adequate cover, and families in under-insulated homes make impossible choices between heating bills and groceries. Children go to school in thin jackets because winter coats aren’t in the budget. The Winter Warmth Drive exists to close that gap — providing new coats, blankets, and thermal essentials through verified shelter partners and community organizations. Every item is purchased by the Foundation and delivered where the need is documented, so no one faces winter without protection.
When temperatures drop, thousands of families and individuals in the Inland Empire face winter without adequate coats, blankets, or heating — a need that is urgent, measurable, and preventable.
The Winter Warmth Drive distributes new coats, blankets, and thermal supplies through verified shelter partners and community organizations — vendor-purchased, never cash, and tracked from warehouse to recipient.
Every item distributed is documented. Supporters can see exactly how their contributions translate into warmth through the Foundation’s transparency reporting.
