The Mets will be holding tomorrow their fifth annual Holiday Coat Drive in conjunction with New York Cares. Fans donating one or more coats will receive a voucher redeemable for a pair of tickets to a select Mets game in April 2012, as well as a coupon for 15 percent off regularly priced merchandise at the Mets Team Store on Wednesday only. Season-ticket holders who donate coats will receive 20 percent off regularly priced items upon showing their season-ticket ID card.
- Time: 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
- Place: Citi Field’s Seaver VIP entrance (Fans may use parking Lot B ( Entrance 8 ) on the north side of the ballpark off Shea Road.)
About New York Cares:
New York Cares was founded by a group of friends who wanted to take action against serious social issues that faced our city in the late 1980s. Finding few options to help, they created their own organization to address the problems from the ground up.
New York Cares is now the city’s largest volunteer organization, running volunteer programs for 1,200 nonprofits, city agencies and public schools. Today’s volunteers share our founders’ vision that we all have a role to play in making our city a better place.

Free? If only I ever owned a coat.

It’s great to donate to charities. I like to donate locally,
but when I pick a national charity I go with Nourishing USA. Check ‘em out if
you get a chance.
