Shop the Sales!
Warm Coats for Baldwin
In the past 9 years, the generous congregation of St. Paul’s has donated approximately 1700 new winter coats for the Baldwin Center store where clients “shop” for their family members before Christmas. Members of our congregation who volunteer at the store report that the coats are some of the first things chosen.
Please shop the post-holiday sales and purchase coats for next year’s store. All sizes, infant through adult, are needed. Cash donations are also accepted. Please write “Coats for Baldwin” on the memo line of your check. Drop off donations in the Narthex February 6 - March 6. Last year we collected a record 330 coats. Can we top that this year? Contact Roxanne Cleveland at 248-371-0382 with questions.
Thank you for helping us make a difference in our local community.
