The [26th annual New York Cares Coat Drive](https://www.newyorkcares.org/coat-drive?ref=bklyner.com) has just kicked off and runs through December 31\. There are more than 280 locations around New York City where you can drop off a clean, gently used coat to help neighbors in need — let’s warm our city up! Here’s where you can donate around our area:

> **NYPD 66th Precinct (5822 16th Avenue)**

> • All hours, every day

> **NYPD 70th Precinct (154 Lawrence Avenue)**

> • All hours, every day

> **Lakeside Center at Prospect Park (171 East Drive, go [here](http://www.prospectpark.org/about-prospect-park/lakeside/lakeside-directions?ref=bklyner.com) for directions)**

> • Monday-Thurdsday 11am-8pm; Friday & Saturday 9am-10pm; Sunday 9am-8pm

Organizations interested in hosting a public collection site or setting up a drive of your own for the New York Cares Coat Drive should [register online](https://www.newyorkcares.org/coat-drive/team-reg?ref=bklyner.com); coats will need to be delivered to their warehouse by December 31, 2014.

There are also ways beyond coat donations to help the drive. Volunteers are needed at several [upcoming coat distribution events](https://www.newyorkcares.org/search/projects/results?issues=201&ref=bklyner.com), and there are some benefit [events](https://www.newyorkcares.org/coat-drive-events?ref=bklyner.com), as well. Also, New York Cares estimates that for every $50 given, 16 coats can be dispersed. Financial donations can be made [here](https://www.kintera.org/AutoGen/Simple/Donor.asp?ievent=25352&ref=bklyner.com).
