Coats for Kindness
A Tribe for Jazz and The Reeb Center Join Forces to Support Southside Columbus Residents with "Coats for Kindness."
We are thrilled to announce an exciting partnership between A Tribe for Jazz and The Reeb Center aimed at making a meaningful difference in the lives of Southside Columbus residents through the "Coats for Kindness" drive. This collaboration represents a powerful coming together of two organizations dedicated to serving the community and improving the lives of those in need.
The Reeb Center, a respected community center that has been a beacon of support for the Southside Columbus neighborhood for years, is renowned for its dedication to empowering the local community by providing resources, services, and programs that enhance the quality of life for residents.
The "Coats for Kindness" drive is a joint effort to collect warm winter coats and outerwear for those in need within Southside Columbus. As the winter season approaches, many individuals and families in the community are faced with the harsh reality of not having adequate protection against the cold. This partnership aims to alleviate that burden by providing essential winter clothing to keep them warm and comfortable.
By combining the passion for music, community service, and a strong commitment to social responsibility, A Tribe for Jazz and The Reeb Center are dedicated to making this winter season a little bit brighter for those who may be struggling.
