HUTCHINSON, Kan. — There are just a few days left to contribute to Ineeda Cleaners Coats for Kids drive this year. The donations will be delivered to the Hutchinson Salvation Army.

"Just clean out those closets," said Rachel Nelson. "Check your kids rooms. Check the back of your car. Anything you are not using we want to find a home for it."

Nelson said the store will take donations until Oct. 31 but would like to wrap up the donation process by Oct. 27. She said Ineeda Cleaners does not have a total count on donations. 

"I can say that it started off really strong this year with a really high number of drop offs that first ten days," Nelson said. "We felt like we were getting a really good selection and a lot of nice kids coats, so it's going well as far as good quality items coming in, so that's been a nice blessing so far." 

Ineeda has a quality selection of kids coats this year but are in need of additional adult sized items. 

"I do think the need is going to be really high this year," Nelson said. "And so those extra blankets, sweaters, you know the extra adult coats that would be great."

Inneda Cleaners is located at 1224 N. Main St. in Hutchinson. More information about the business iavailable at ineedacleaners.com
