Mayer Realty Group supports Coats for Kids & Families

In hard economic times and cold New England weather, a warm coat isn’t a luxury; it is a necessity. Across the region, there are thousands of children and adults who may otherwise not have access to a warm coat this winter.

Canton-based Mayer Realty Group of Compass is proud to be a collection partner for Coats for Kids & Families. Coats collected will be professionally cleaned by Anton’s Cleaners and given to local nonprofits, social service agencies, and schools for distribution. The Mayer team is asking the community to donate coats for children and adults. Contact Julie.molloy@compass.com to arrange a donation.

The Coats for Kids & Families coat drive sponsored by Anton’s Cleaners, Enterprise Bank, and Jordan’s Furniture kicked off October 8 and runs through January 8, 2022. With the help of local schools and community partners, the organization has collected, cleaned, and distributed 1,150,631 coats since the program began in 1995.

“For nearly three decades, Caring Partners has had one mission: anyone who needs a coat will have one,” said Arthur Anton Jr., COO of Anton’s Cleaners and founder of the program. “Local schools, companies, clubs, and nonprofits collaborate each year to collect, clean and distribute 50,000 winter coats — it is nothing short of a miracle. We are proud this program gives back directly to the communities we serve.”

Coats for Kids & Families accepts warm winter coats that are gently used, good quality, and all sizes (especially XL and infant/pre-K sizes). The drive does not accept coats with rips, tears, broken zippers, or permanent stains, nor can we accept sweatshirts, vests and spring coats. Coats will also be collected at all Anton’s Cleaners — including the Canton location at 20 Washington Street — as well as all Jordan’s Furniture and Enterprise Bank locations through January 8.
