blanket drives

Charity cover collections

Blanket drives are organized collection efforts to gather blankets for people in need, typically during cold weather.

Churches, schools, and community groups run them to help homeless populations or disaster victims: The shelter's annual blanket drive starts next month.

Like food drives and clothing drives, they rely on donated goods rather than cash.
