Winter clothing donation?

[lonelyholiday.livejournal.com]

I have a few hats/scarves and maybe even an extra jacket that I would like to donate somewhere. I know I've seen boxes in various stores/businesses in the past, but of course now that I'm actually paying attention I haven't come across one.

Anyone know of a donation box in the immediate Porter/Davis area?

I know I could just give them to Goodwill, and I will do that if necessary, but I feel like one of these specific winter-clothing drives will get them redistributed to cold locals faster than a donation into the Goodwill sorting system. Right?

I would give local shelters a call

There's the Second Chances box, but it's near the Christmas Tree Shop.

Also Big Brother, Big Sister has a box in Teele Square behind Kirkland Cleaners.

The Somerville Homeless Coalition usually has donation boxes. They're at 1 Davis Square. You could also drop them off at the adult homeless shelter at 14 Chapel Street (side entrance of the Methodist church on College Ave). Hope this helps.
