North Hills & North Allegheny Cheerleaders Unite for Sixth Annual Coat Drive

While the Indians and Tigers fight it out on the field, cheerleaders from North Hills and North Allegheny  will be working together Friday night to keep less fortunate families in our area warm this winter. 

The North Hills and North Allegheny cheerleading squads are sponsoring the sixth annual Unite on Game Night coat drive to benefit North Hills Community Outreach’s Free Coat Shop.

The coat drive will be held during the North Hills versus North Allegheny football game on Oct. 26 at North Allegheny’s Newman Stadium. Kickoff is at 7:30 p.m.

Cheerleaders will be stationed by the ticket booth to accept donations of clean, gently worn coats of all sizes. Coats can also be dropped off at the North Hills athletics and activities office in North Hills High School from Oct. 22 to 26 from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Throughout the last five years, the cheerleaders have collected more than 3,000 coats from the North Hills and North Allegheny school communities.
