Have an Extra Coat? Donate it to Burke & Herbert Bank
Burke & Herbert Bank is collecting gently used coats this month to help those less fortunate in the community stay warm.
Burke & Herbert Bank, which has a branch in Annandale, is hosting a "Share the Warmth" coat drive this month for those in need to stay warm this holiday season.
The drive is part of a sponsorship between Burke & Herbert Bank, NBC Washington, The Salvation Army USA, and Bergmann's Cleaning.
Residents can donate gently used coats by dropping them off at any Burke & Herbert Bank location through Dec. 21. Annandale's branch is located at 4235 Annandale Rd.
All of the coats will be cleaned by Bergmann's Cleaners and distributed by the Salvation Army, according to Annandale Burke & Herbert Bank Branch Manager Patricia Leugers.
Burke & Herbert Bank is also offering to donate $2 (up to $500) to The Salvation Army USA for every"share" of this post about the Coat Drive on their Facebook page.
