The Winter Warmth Project


Winter 2012
Unfortuanetly we are not able to reach out to every Homeless Veteran in our city, because of lack of space in our current facilities, but we can give them a warm meal, a coat, a blanket and some company during the Winter months. Survival Blankets
Help Our Homeless Veterans During The Cold Winter Months, By Providing Survival Blankets To Keep Them Alive.

The 2010-2011 Winter In Atlanta Was Harsh. Our team passed out over 1000 survival blankets this year, but we are in need of re-stocking our supply for 2012-2013.

Winter Coats
We are collecting new and clean, gently used outerwear such as coats, jackets, sweatshirts and sweaters. Gloves, mittens, scarves, hats, sleeping bags, tents and blankets are also welcome. All shapes and sizes are needed, but the need is greatest for LARGE and EXTRA LARGE adult sized coats and jackets.
