coat drives
Winter clothing campaigns
Coat drives are organized campaigns to collect donated coats for distribution to people in need, typically during cold weather months.
Churches, schools, and community organizations commonly sponsor them: The elementary school is holding its annual coat drive through November.
The format extends to other charitable collections: food drives, toy drives, blood drives.
