Redlands Drives to Keep City Residents Warm This Winter

Residents can join the City of Redlands and the Redlands Service Club Council and help keep someone warm this winter. The Redlands Service Club Council is holding its annual drive to collect necessary warm winter gear for members of our community. Drop-off locations will be located at several City facilities. Volunteers will gather clean and new or gently used items including coats, jackets, scarves, gloves, hats, blankets, quilts, and sleeping bags. Last year’s drive was a success with more than 3,000 items donated and distributed. The Redlands Service Club Council is hoping for an even better turnout this year. Collection dates are Nov. 13 and Dec. 11. Please drop off items in one of the drop-off containers before the final collection date. Donation drop-off containers are available at the following locations: Redlands City Clerk’s Office, 35 Cajon Street, Suite 1 909-798-7531 Monday through Thursday and alternate Fridays from 7:30 to 5:30 p.m. Joslyn Senior Center, 21 Grant St. 909-798-7550 Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Redlands Community Senior Center, 111 W.
