Warm Winter Clothing Drive

To help everyone stay warm this winter, the Amherst school parent & guardian organizations (PGOs) are collecting winter coats & other outerwear for students (preK through 12th grade) & families. 

We are seeking donations of clean, gently-used winter outerwear: in ALL sizes (especially student sizes), including coats, snow pants, snow boots, hats, jackets, gloves/mittens, scarves, and snowsuits. 

Items will be collected at ARMS from November 6 through December 1, both in the lobby and outside the auditorium. Distribution for ARMS students will be through the ARPS Family Center (located in the middle school building) from November 20 into December (as supplies last). Any items not given out at the schools will be donated to the Amherst Survival Center.
