Running through December, Senior Commons at Powder Mill is collecting winter coats and blankets to be donated to Bell Family Shelter.

Senior Commons, in partnership with New Fairview Church of the Brethren in York, is asking for new or gently used coats and blankets for adults and children.

All donations benefit Bell Family Shelter, which opened in 1986 and remains York County’s only 30-day emergency shelter serving homeless families.

Items can be dropped off at Senior Commons at Powder Mill, 1775 Powder Mill Road, York. For more information, call Brandy Reeve, marketing director, at (717) 741-0961.

Retired and Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP) of the Capital Region wants to help ensure none of the residents of York County goes cold this winter by collecting donations for Sock It To Us!, a statewide signature project of Senior Corps of Pennsylvania.
