Pawtucket, RI ??? Cold weather is upon us. Struggling Rhode Islanders in local communities are in need of winter coats, hats, scarves, gloves and more.
Employees at Memorial Hospital recently participated in a Warm-a-Heart Coat Drive sponsored by The Neighborhood Alliance of Pawtucket to help local families in need.
The hospital collected about 200 winter apparel items in a coat drive that ran for three weeks in November.
Representatives from The Neighborhood Alliance of Pawtucket then distributed the winter clothes to residents of Pawtucket and surrounding communities.
The Neighborhood Alliance of Pawtucket is comprised of more than 15 organizations from various neighborhood and business associations.
Alliance President, Arthur Plitt, said ???We volunteer and work to make our local communities even better places in which to live, work and play. Thank you to Memorial Hospital.???
