Kennett Area Community Winter Coat Drive

This year marks the 10^th Anniversary of the Kennett Square community coat drive outreach program. Founded by the Unionville Presbyterian Church & The Kennett Square Rotary Club, coats have been donated and delivered for children of the Maternal Child Health Consortium (MCHS), a non-profit organization giving to children and adults, committed to assuring children in the Chester County region to start healthy, stay healthy, and succeed in school. In addition to the MCHS, other local non-profit organizations in need have been helped by this great cause.

The Kennett Township Police Department partnered with the Longwood Fire Company and has been a participating member in the previous years. This year, The KTPD, Longwood Fire Company & Kennett Fire Company No. 1 will be collecting coats as a community outreach to children and adults in need with Unionville Presbyterian Church & The Kennett Square Rotary Club.

For your convenience, we have three separate locations for a drop-off. We request that any new or slightly used coats you are willing to donate be dropped off at any of these locations designated to our drop boxes by December 5^th.

Please see the flyer below for more details.

KACS Toy Drive

It will take many Santa's to help bring the holidays to the children of the 735 households served by Kennett Area Community Service. Will you be one of them?! All toy donations can be dropped off at the Food Cupboard, unwrapped. The address is 136 West Cedar Street, Kennett Square, PA 19348. They are looking for toys from ages 2-11 and are collecting donations until December 15^th. All toys will be distributed at the Holiday Food Distribution on December 17^th.

Thank You Veterans

Last but certainly not least, we want to extend a heartfelt thank you to all veterans who have served our great nation. As a reminder, the Township offices will be closed tomorrow, November 11^th in observance of Veterans Day. We will resume normal business hours on Monday, November 14^th.
