The Urgent Need for Warm Clothing Donations

The severity of the situation cannot be overstated. As winter sets in, the demand for warm clothing at the Tulsa Day Center increases exponentially. We serve a vulnerable population including homeless individuals, low-income families, and those struggling with various hardships. These individuals lack the resources to protect themselves adequately from the harsh winter weather. Without sufficient warm clothing donations, many will face significant risks to their health and well-being.

The types of clothing most urgently needed include:

• Coats: All sizes and styles, from lightweight jackets to heavy winter coats, are crucial.
• Heavy Sweaters and Jackets: These provide an extra layer of warmth under a coat.
• Warm Hats, Gloves, and Scarves: These accessories are essential for protecting extremities from frostbite.
• Thick Socks and Thermal Underwear: These base layers are vital for retaining body heat.
• Waterproof Boots: Protecting feet from the elements is crucial for preventing hypothermia and other health issues.

Without enough donations, our clients face an increased risk of hypothermia, frostbite, and other illnesses exacerbated by cold weather exposure. Your generosity can be the difference between life and death for those most vulnerable in our community.

How You Can Help: Making a Donation

Donating warm clothing to the Tulsa Day Center is easy and impactful. Here's how you can help:

• Drop-off Location: You can drop off your donations at our center located at 123 Main Street, Tulsa, OK 74103, during our operating hours: Monday-Friday, 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM.

We appreciate all donations, big or small. Every piece of warm clothing helps.

What Makes Your Donation Impactful

Your warm clothing donation directly impacts the lives of individuals experiencing homelessness and hardship in our community. It provides them with much-needed protection from the elements, preventing illness and improving their overall well-being. For example, last year, a donation of 50 coats allowed us to outfit vulnerable individuals, preventing several cases of hypothermia. These stories are a testament to the significant effect your generosity has. Your contribution helps foster a supportive community that prioritizes the health and safety of its most vulnerable members.
