The Ocean City Board of REALTORS® is pleased to announce its fall community service project, a drive to collect coats, sweaters, scarves, hats, and other cold weather items. Donations will be collected now through November 23rd and will be used to give the gift of warmth for winter to those in need in Ocean City.
The Warmth for the Winter Drive will collect gently used or new items. Needed most is clothes and coats for men, hats, scarves, gloves and socks. Also hats, gloves, coats, and scarves for children. Blankets, sheets, and comforters are needed as well.
