Coat & Blanket Drive

As the temperatures dip and as recovery from Hurricane Michael continues, Southwest Georgia Farm Credit, Grace Christian Academy and Five Points Cleaners are teaming up to hold a coat and blanket drive to help those in need. 

Gently used and new blankets, coats, scarves, and winter hats can be dropped off at any Southwest Georgia Farm Credit office, or at Grace Christian Academy in Bainbridge, through Monday, December 17th. 

Special thanks to our long-time blanket and coat drive partner, Five Points Cleaners, for cleaning all the gently used items.
