WEST CHESTER, PA — As winter approaches, the Westtown-East Goshen Police Department (WEGO PD) is taking proactive steps to ensure that everyone in the community has access to warm clothing. In collaboration with One Warm Coat, WEGO PD has launched a charitable initiative, collecting new or gently used coats, hats, gloves, and scarves to support those in need. The drive runs through November 18, with drop-off locations at the WEGO Police Department and the East Goshen Township building.

This partnership highlights the department’s commitment to community welfare and underscores the importance of community involvement in addressing local needs. By encouraging residents to contribute, WEGO PD aims to foster a spirit of giving and solidarity, ensuring that vulnerable individuals are protected from the harsh winter elements.

Donations can be made at the following locations: the WEGO Police Department, located at 1041 Wilmington Pike, between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, and the East Goshen Township building at 1580 Paoli Pike, with operating hours from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on weekdays.

“With your help we have collected thousands of coats through the years!” reflects the success and community support of previous drives. This statement from the department underscores the crucial role that local residents play in making these charitable efforts successful.

The impact of this initiative extends beyond simply providing warmth. It serves to strengthen community ties and demonstrates the power of collective action in tackling social issues. By participating in the coat drive, individuals contribute to a culture of empathy and support, reinforcing the idea that small acts of kindness can have far-reaching effects.
