For the past 27 years, The Jersey Cares Coat Drive has mobilized the collection and distribution of thousands of “gently used” winter coats to men, women, children, and infants in need. Companies, churches, police stations, schools and other organizations collect coats throughout the drive and deliver them to a central location. Volunteers then organize the donated coats and package them for pick-up. The coats are then distributed to people in need.
Matrix gives back to communities throughout the country, such as the YMCA, Big Brothers Big Sisters, Morristown Community Soup Kitchen Outreach Center, Market Street Mission, Cheshire House and the Arizona Department of Water Resources to name a few.
According to Jayne Warne, PE, President, “It is critical to support the communities where Matrix, it’s clients and its employees live and work. The holidays are very difficult for many families and we look forward to offering support for years to come.”
