The organizations distribute jackets and coats in New York and New Jersey

Winter in New York can be a stressful time, as low temperatures can cause complications for those who do not dress appropriately.

For this reason, various organizations offer events to deliver coats, sweaters and winter clothing to those who need them.

Some of them deliver them permanently throughout the winter, while others have one-day events.
