About:
Our wonderful Hoosic Valley basketball parents and community thought it would be a great idea to sponsor a winter coat drive for the Sidewalk Warriors in Troy to distribute coats to families and individuals that are in need of them. We were able to collect 75 coats that will be put to great use for those that are in need of some warmth this winter.
Sidewalk Warriors in Troy is a, “grassroots 501(c)(3) organization consisting of volunteers who support friends in our community who are experiencing a need. That need could include homelessness, food insecurity, or just running short at the end of the month. We believe in empathy and compassion. We don’t pass judgment or question anyone’s needs. We are members of an amazing community, and we give back by helping our fellow community members!”
