LCC is hosting its annual sock, gloves, hat, and scarf drive for those in need including: the UW Pioneer Foot Clinic serves unsheltered neighbors; Mary’s Place serves women and children; and Youthcare serves unsheltered youth, ages 18-24. The challenges of cold weather and low supplies are real, and we can all pitch in right now to provide new and warm items for men and women in sizes M-XL, as well as children’s sizes. The podiatrist at Pioneer Square Clinic says our donations make a “huge impact.” Items in great demand are indoor-outdoor slippers for both men and women. Please drop off items between now and December 13 at Flooring America, 3605 NE 45th St., 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Saturday. Neighbors have always donated generously. Thank you!
