Coats. Coffee. Caring.
The Ad Club wants you to show your sweet side – help Sweet_ness 7 keep our West Side neighbors warm this winter.

We all do it. As the temperature drops, we all root through our closets and figure out what needs to be replaced, what’s been outgrown, and “what the hell was I thinking when I bought THAT?” We all bag it up, promising ourselves that we’ll drive to Goodwill and drop it off. And then, the bag sits in the back of the closet, forgotten. This year, instead of forgetting, let’s remember there are families – neighbors – in our area that can really use what we no longer need.
This week, instead of shoving that bag in the closet, put it in your car. Drive it to work and add it to a collection box in your office. And on Friday, October 26, have a few volunteers from your office drop it all off at Sweet_ness 7’s Grant Street or Parkside locations in support of their efforts to help the West Side immigrant community. They will distribute the clothes to the people who need them. (And you’ll have a clean closet.) Have a cup of coffee there with your coworkers — and know you did a great thing for some neighbors in need, and a great thing for a great Buffalo business.
