YORKTON - With winter upon us it’s time to bundle up in warm clothes.
But, not everyone has all the clothes they need, nor the budget flexibility for added clothing purchases at this time of year.
So, on the eve of the season of giving, why not help out by donating new, or nearly new winter clothing to help others?
That’s exactly what Credence Construction in Yorkton is trying to facilitate, as they are collecting new or next to new mitts, toques, scarves, jackets, ski-pants, boots, etc. and non-perishable food items that will go to help people in need in our community.
“It’s new for us,” Dustin Brears, manager at Credence said of the initiative.
Brears said in a weekly managers meeting “the idea came forward that we do something like this for the community.”
Donations are being collected for Bruno’s Place, Shelwin House and local food banks, and may be dropped off in the bin in front of the Credence offices at the Linden Square Mall (385 Broadway Street East, Yorkton), Monday-Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., until Dec. 16.
