Coat Drive
The International Institute of Buffalo (IIB) works with American and international organizations to resettle refugees from various parts of the world to Buffalo, NY. These refugees have often spent years in refugee camps and come to the U.S. without clothes for winter. The IIB is holding a winter coat drive to collect old coats or other winter items (hats, scarves, mittens) for the refugee adults and children who are arriving to Buffalo this winter. If you would like to donate any of these items, please drop them off in the box outside Timon 116 through the end of March. If you have any questions, please email Professor Kristin Cruz at kcruz@niagara.edu.
