Operation Orange Warm-up Winter Coat Selection

Operation Orange Warmup, the University's annual coat drive, helps address this critical need. Now in its fourth year, the program is collecting new and gently used coats to provide warmth for our most vulnerable neighbors during the harsh winter ahead.

Students in need of a coat can RSVP for the coat selection event on Wednesday, Nov. 5, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. in Barnes Center Room 308.

This year’s efforts, organized by the Office of Community Engagement, begin during the Saturday, Oct. 18, home football game against the University of Pittsburgh in the JMA Wireless Dome and include a campuswide coat drive to assist students and community members in need from Monday, Oct. 20, through Friday, Oct. 24, at various locations across campus.
