Add a new coat or hoodie to your shopping list in November and help Marysville Police keep local children warm this winter.
Police will volunteer two weekends at local businesses, collecting new coat and hoodie donations for kids ages 0 to 17. Those coats will be distributed to local children in need this December at the Marysville Community Food Bank Toy Store. The coat collection will be Nov. 6 and 7, noon to 4 p.m., at Kohl’s, 3713 116th St. NE, and Nov. 13 and 14, noon to 4 p.m., at Walmart, 8713 64th St. NE.
“The annual coat drive is an excellent way for us to come together as a community and provide a warm and safe foundation for children in Marysville,” Marysville Police Chief Eric Scairpon said. “These coats will help them play, learn, and grow. As part of the police department’s annual effort to support this drive, we pledge our service beyond the badge to help make for a great community. And we invite you to join us in this effort.”

Efforts by Marysville Police, Marysville Professional Firefighters and others provided the Marysville Community Food Bank Toy Store with a coat for every child in need in 2020.
