7th Annual Coat Drive

New Jersey State Troopers distributed approximately 560 coats to students of the Elizabeth Public Schools, during their 7th Annual Coat Drive on January 18th and 19th.

The donations, collections and distribution of coats to our student's were made possible through the tremendous assistance and collaboration with: Elizabeth Public Schools team members, Wakefern, Elizabeth Police and Fire Department, Hispanic Law Enforcement Association of Union County (HLEAUC), New Jersey Latin-American Trooper's Society (NJLATS), At Heart's Length, Pepsi, Cummins, Target of Linden and Mario's Pizzeria of Perth Amboy, along with community friends and families. Retail companies that assisted with the coat drive included: Target located at Aviation Plaza in Linden, Macy's and Sears of Woodbridge Center Mall located in Woodbridge and BJ's located in Edison.

The annual community outreach event is reflective of the efforts Troopers make throughout the year, to have a significant and memorable impact on the communities they serve.

 

Once again, the heartfelt generosity of the New Jersey State Troopers and their partners, will help ensure Elizabeth Public Schools students stay warm during this especially cold winter season.
