Winter is Coming!

Help us keep homeless New Yorkers healthy and warm this winter!
Every year, winter in New York City can reach below freezing temperatures with strong winds and snow, and no one should face an icy winter without proper clothing. A hat and scarf can go a long way to help a person's well-being. As the weather grows colder, CFH runs an annual Winter Accessories Drive to help keep homeless New Yorkers warm. This year's drive will be held from November 1 to January 31, 2019.

List of Supplies Needed*:
  • Hats
  • Gloves
  • Scarves
  • Socks (Please, new socks only)
*Sorry, we are unable to accept coats. We can only accept new or clean/laundered items.


Drop-off Location:
Care For the Homeless Headquarters
30 E 33rd Street, Fifth Floor
New York, NY 10016
