Volunteer: Skatepark Respect: 3rd Annual Warm Drive!

3rd Annual Warm Drive with Skatepark Respect

This December, Skatepark Respect is keeping the giving spirit alive with our 3rd Annual Warm Drive — helping spread comfort and care throughout the Garland community!

Join us from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. for a litter cleanup at Jon Comer Skatepark, then stick around or roll through to drop off donations of socks, mittens, beanies, scarves, blankets, and jackets for all ages until 1 p.m. 
We will also be collecting sanitary items. 

Not into cleanup duty? No sweat — your donations alone make a big difference! Every item you bring goes toward keeping our neighbors warm this winter and earns you volunteer hours and a chance to win a mystery prize.

VOLUNTEERS WILL ALSO BE TREATED TO A HOT COCOA BAR!

Come share the stoke, give back, and help fill Garland with warmth and goodwill — one cozy donation at a time.

Bundle up, drop in, and do some good — all hands (and gloves) on deck!

All donations will be collected in honor of Hope’s Door, GLOWS, and other local organizations working to support families and individuals in need this winter.
