RICHMOND, Va. (WRIC) -- A national nonprofit is collecting winter coats to help keep people warm as temperatures drop, with Richmond-area residents encouraged to donate before the Friday deadline.
"One Warm Coat" is accepting new or used coats -- as long as they are clean and undamaged -- at three different Shady Grove Fertility locations across Virginia daily from 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. until Friday, Dec. 20.
For those in the Richmond area, you can visit the Shady Grove Fertility at 9030 Stony Point Parkway #450 to participate. The other two locations are in Roanoke and Norfolk.
