Clean out those closets and donate your gently used or new winter clothing. Montana Matriarch’s 3rd Annual Spread the Warmth Winter Clothing Drive is kicking off November 3rd and runs through December 1st at locations throughout Park County.

Donations of winter clothing for infants, children, youth and adults are being accepted to help spread the warmth in our community.  Items for infants and children are in high demand and have run out very quickly in previous years. If you have children’s items to spare, please consider donating them this year.

Look for the big boxes wrapped in holiday wrapping paper with the Spread the Warmth sign on them. Donation site collection hours are regular business hours for each location. Additional incentives from some of these businesses will be posted on the Spread the Warmth Facebook page to encourage donations.

Distribution of the donations will take place on December 9th from 9:30am-12:30pm at the Livingston Civic Center. Organizations that serve members of our community that may be in need of these donations are encouraged to contact Montana Matriarch to help promote the distribution to ensure that these items get in the hands of the people who need them most.
