Miss New Jersey Junior High America Coat Drive Starts This Weekend

Collection benefits the Human Needs Food Pantry in Montclair.

The weather is getting colder and a lot of adults and children in our area need a little bit of extra help with obtaining a warm coat this year. 

Cianna Winkler, from Verona, the 2014 Miss New Jersey Junior High America, is holding a coat drive to benefit the Human Needs Food Pantry in Montclair. 

Gently used, clean coats can be dropped off at the Verona Community Center, 880 Bloomfield Ave., in the front entryway, or at Twin Method Cleaners, 619 Bloomfield Ave. in Verona, from Saturday, Dec. 7 through Thursday, Dec. 19.
