Middle and Upper School students:
For every five coats you donate, you will earn one hour of community service credit.  Please submit your donation through MobileServe. For verification purposes, you must bag the coats you donate and label the bag with your first and last name.

Middle and Upper School students can also earn community service hours in exchange for helping sort the coats. Interested students should email Ms. Vessio at mvessio@kewforest.org and copy communityservice@kewforest.org.

*ABOUT THE ST. NICHOLAS PROJECT
The St. Nicholas Project is a year-round initiative to help the most vulnerable in New York City and neighboring communities by providing support to individuals and families through donations of essential items and connecting them to much needed services. In addition to providing food, emergency cash assistance, and case management support throughout the year, we distribute winter coats, hats, gloves, scarves, sweaters, blankets, and more to those who otherwise would go without during the cold winter months.
