On Saturday October 12th over 575 coats were donated for Colorado Group Realty’s Annual Coat Drive for LiftUp of Routt County. “Each year when the temperature starts to drop, the Coat Drive is a remarkable way for Steamboat’s community to give back and support those in need,” said Jess Whalen, CGR Charitable Foundation Board Member & Coat Drive Organizer. “I’m grateful that Colorado Group Realty has such a big role in providing an event like this for the public!”
20 volunteers from Colorado Group Realty collected coats and other winter gear from 9AM-4PM last Saturday. Community members stopped by throughout the day, either via car or bike, to drop off their donations and say hello.
CGR CEO, Steve Goldman said “It’s our hope that everyone in Routt County can have a warm coat to get through our cold winters. This year we had so much community support; it was our biggest coat drive of our 16 years organizing it. CGR is so proud that we can help those in need.”
A very special thanks to LiftUp, Marmot, and Ski Town Cleaner for sponsoring this event!
