U.S.D. 1812 Concludes Winter Coat Drive

From the December 10, 2020, Sentinel-Record (Arkansas)

The United States Daughters of War of 1812 (U.S.D. 1812) has conducted their 2020 winter drive to gather coats for veterans.  Members Joan Davis and Sheila Beatty on December 4, delivered 303 items of men's clothing and blankets to St. Francis  House.  The collection was also aided by radio station KVRE.

The collecting was primarily done by the radio station, but 1812 members inspected the clothing, sorted it, and when needed, laundered them.

In November, U.S.D. 1812 delivered 150 coats and other winter clothing to the Central Arkansas Veterans health Care  System VA Volunteer services.

More Work of Those Great Lineage Organizations.  --Brock-Perry
