APA Coat Drive

The MSU Administrative Professional Association’s (MSU APA) Community Based Events Committee is pleased announce the start of our annual Winter Coat Drive, September 23 – October 25, in partnership with MSU’s Migrant Student Services Program and Family Resource Center.

Each year many deserving MSU students are in need of a coat, hat, or other winter clothing. The APA is working to collect warm garments to help see these students through the cold Michigan weather.

In particular need are students from migrant labor families coming to MSU for the dream of education, but with few funds and no experience with freezing temperatures.

New this year, MSU-APA will be partnering with the Lansing Public Schools Education Association in running a parallel drive. Children’s coats and additional winter wear collected by the APA will go to support the needy students of Lansing Public Schools. Lansing Schools will likewise be sharing their additional winter wear with MSU.

Last year’s APA coat drive resulted in nearly 550 garments and our goal is to meet and exceed the 2012 success. Please contribute clean new or in good condition coats, hats, scarves, gloves and boots to any of the following locations between September 23 and October 25.  Adult and children’s sizes are needed.
