We’re proud to partner with Reno Buick GMC at 1000 Kietzke Lane to distribute new coats from Macy’s so that kids in Reno and the surrounding area can stay warm this winter.
These coats were donated by Macy’s and Clothes4Souls through their “Buy a Coat & We’ll Donate One” campaign. Macy’s donates a new coat for every coat purchased in store and online, up to 35K coats. A total of 35,000 coats were donated for the fall season and distributions are taking place across the country through this fall and winter.
This is the seventh year of the partnership between Macy’s and Clothes4Souls, resulting in a total of over 270,000 coats distributed nationwide since 2013, with retail value of more than $10 million.
Clothes4Souls Background: Clothes4Souls, a division of Soles4Souls, creates sustainable jobs and provides relief through the distribution of clothing. Right here in the United States, 1 in 5 children live below the poverty line. When we can help provide a new coat or much needed clothing, we’re helping bridge the economic gap. For these families, new clothing provides health, dignity and hope. (Source: National Center for Children in Poverty).
