Winter hits hard in Minnesota and while many of us pull on warm jackets and grab a cozy latte without thinking twice, thousands of families in our community don’t have access to something as basic as a winter coat. This December, we’re changing that.
One coat + one coffee + one act of kindness at a time.
Donate a Coat → Get a Coffee → Spread Warmth
December 1–31 | Twin Cities Metro Area
For the entire month of December, bring a new or gently used winter coat to any of our official Drop Points or Pop-Up Locations across the Twin Cities. In return, you’ll receive a complimentary coffee from one of our local Coffee Partners (TBA) our way of saying “thank you for warming a neighbor’s winter.”
Every coat collected supports The Sanneh Foundation, whose mission is to empower youth, improve lives, and unite communities through education, health, and programs that advance diversity, equity, and well-being.
Whether it’s a puffer jacket, a child’s parka, or a classic wool coat
All sizes and styles are welcome. Clean out your closets and help fill
someone else’s with comfort and dignity.
How You Can Help Today
- Gather coats from your home, workplace, or friend group
- Sign up below for updates on pop-ups and partner announcements
- Help us hit our big December goal: 500 coats collected and delivered
Every coat has a story. You can help write someone’s next chapter warmer, safer, and full of hope.
