Bowie Residents Can Take Part in County Coat Drive

Bowie residents who have a clean, lightly used coat or jacket that is no longer being worn can donate it to One Warm Coat Organization, a non-profit that supports and encourages coat drives.

Prince George’s County has partnered with the One Warm Coat organization to collect coats and jackets for those in need. Last year, the county collected 699 coats.

• District I Police Station, 5000 Rhode Island Ave., Hyattsville.
• District II Police Station, 601 SW Crain Highway, Upper Marlboro.
