Anything you’d want to put on your body or your bed in cold weather is what we need: blankets, sleeping bags, coats, gloves, thermal underwear, hats, and even thick socks.”

Many families are just getting by and are ill-equipped to weather a Michigan winter. Participating in Spano’s Bundle Up Blanket and Coat Drive is an easy way to engage an entire family in serving the community. “We’re in the business of protecting people with auto, home and life insurance,” said Spano, “this is a natural extension of what we do every day.”

All donations will be distributed free of charge, directly to local shelters and organizations. Clean, gently used donations can be dropped off at any of Spano’s three Allstate Offices.
