GLEAMNS Human Resources Commission Announces Upcoming Coat Drive to Benefit Local Shelters and Those In Need

January 28, 2025

GLEAMNS Human Resources Commission is proud to announce a Coat Drive as part of its GLEAMNS CARES initiative. This drive-thru event will take place on February 5, 2025, from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM at the GLEAMNS Human Resources Commission corporate office located at 237 N Main Street, Greenwood, SC 29646.

As temperatures drop, the need for warm clothing becomes increasingly critical for those in the communities we serve. Through this event, we invite the public to donate new or gently used coats to help keep our neighbors warm during the winter months.

For those who may be unable to attend the drive-through event, GLEAMNS provides an easy alternative: simply scan the QR code featured on our promotional materials and website to make a monetary donation. Every dollar donated will go directly towards purchasing coats, ensuring that 100% of contributions serve local shelters and individuals in need within our GLEAMNS service areas.

“We believe that everyone deserves access to warmth and comfort, especially during the cold winter months,” said Dr. Ameca Thomas, CEO of GLEAMNS Human Resources Commission. “Our Coat Drive is a testament to our commitment to Compassion, Advocacy, Respect, Elevation, and Service—principles that define our CARES initiative. Together, we can make a meaningful difference in the lives of those who need it most.”

Join us in making a positive impact on our community. For more information about the Coat Drive or to get involved, please contact Jennifer Abercrombie, Chief Operations Officer, at 864-229-8801, or visit our website at www.gleamnshrc.org.
