Each November, as temperatures drop and the season of giving arrives, Connect California Homes hosts our annual Warm Coat Drive to support families in need throughout the East Bay.
In partnership with local nonprofits like Hively and the East Bay Agency for Children (EBAC), we collect clean, gently used winter coats for children, teens, and adults. These donations go directly to local families facing financial hardship or recovering from trauma, ensuring that warmth, comfort, and care reach those who need it most.
Both Hively and EBAC provide critical support services, helping families across the Tri-Valley and greater East Bay build resilience and find stability. By donating a coat, you’re offering more than just warmth, you’re helping someone stay safe, supported, and seen.
A simple act of kindness can mean everything when the weather turns cold.
We’re looking forward to hosting our 13th Annual Warm Coat Drive on December 6th, 2025! This cherished event is part of our ongoing mission to support families across our community during the colder months.
📦 What to Donate: Clean and gently used winter coats (all sizes welcome)
🤝 Where Donations Go: Directly to families served by Hively and EBAC
EVENT INFORMATION:
📅 Date: Saturday, December 6th, 2025
⏰ Time: 9:00AM – 12:00PM
📍Location: 4151 W Las Positas Blvd, Pleasanton
Can't make it to the event? No worries, there will be a donation box for drop offs at Porky's Pizza Palace off Hopyard Rd in Pleasanton from November 30th - December 7th.
