'Coats for Connecticut' -- A Holiday Drive to Collect Coats

Best Cleaners and Braman pest control are co-sponsoring a winter coat drive in the Glastonbury area.

Braman Termite and Pest Elimination, a pest management service in southern New England, announced this week that they will be teaming up with Best Cleaners and Coats for Connecticut to collect winter coats for children in need through Jan. 2.

Best Cleaners has sponsored a “Coats for Connecticut” campaign for the past six years. During that time thousands of coats have been collected and donated to children and families in need. Best Cleaners cleans all of the coats for free and the Salvation Army distributes them.

Braman is asking their customers to give their gently used winter coats to service professionals while they make their regularly scheduled service appointments.
