As colder seasons approach, staying warm becomes a serious and often life-threatening challenge for individuals experiencing homelessness. The We Got You Covered Campaign was created to respond to this urgent need by providing blankets, jackets, and essential cold-weather items to help our unhoused neighbors stay safe, warm, and protected.
This initiative is more than a donation drive. It’s a community commitment to care, dignity, and humanity.
Cold weather doesn’t just bring discomfort it brings real danger. Exposure to low temperatures increases the risk of illness, hypothermia, and other serious health conditions, especially for those without stable shelter.
For someone living unhoused, a warm blanket or jacket is not a convenience it is a necessity. Through the We Got You Covered Campaign, we aim to:
️✅ Reduce cold-weather risks for vulnerable individuals
️✅ Provide warmth, comfort, and dignity
️✅ Show our unhoused community that they are seen, valued, and supported
We are accepting new or gently used, clean, and wearable items, including:
🟡 Blankets (preferably thick or thermal)
🟡 Jackets and coats (all sizes)
🟡 Hoodies and sweaters
🟡 Scarves, gloves, and beanies
Warm socks (new preferred)
Why These Items?
These items provide immediate protection from cold temperatures and are easy to distribute directly to individuals in need.
The We Got You Covered Campaign directly supports individuals and families experiencing homelessness in our local community. Many of the people we serve spend long hours outdoors or in temporary shelters, making warm clothing and blankets critical for their safety and well-being.
Our goal is to ensure that no one faces the cold season without protection.
