(SYOSSET and JERICHO, N.Y.) –Nassau County Legislature Deputy Minority Leader Arnold W. Drucker (D - Plainview) is joining forces with the Syosset and Jericho Libraries, as well as Syosset-based Always Orthodontics, to host his office’s fourth annual winter coat drive to benefit the Long Island Coalition for the Homeless.
Donors are invited to drop off new and gently used winter coats and winter accessories (gloves, hats, scarves, etc.) at the Syosset Public Library, 225 S. Oyster Bay Road, Syosset, N.Y. 11791; the Jericho Public Library, 1 Merry Lane, Jericho N.Y. 11753; and Always Orthodontics, 485 Underhill Blvd., Suite 306, Syosset, N.Y. 11791 during normal business hours from Tuesday, Dec. 2 to Monday, Dec. 22.
“Last winter, thanks to the tremendous generosity of District 16 residents, we received hundreds of winter coats and other cold-weather essentials for deserving families throughout our region – and we are more committed than ever this holiday season to sharing warmth with our community - one coat at a time,” Deputy Minority Leader Drucker said. “When you give, you’re donating more than just a coat or a pair of gloves – you’re extending a gesture of compassion and hope to the recipient, and I am thrilled to once again join forces with the Long Island Coalition for the Homeless and our outstanding team of sponsors for our fourth annual drive.”
Anyone interested in supporting the coat drive can contact Deputy Minority Leader Drucker’s office at 516-571-6216 or adrucker@nassaucountyny.gov for details.
