Coldwell Banker continues tradition

Town Crier Staff Report

Each holiday season, the Los Altos offices of Coldwell Banker join together and support a holiday project organizers call, "Operation: One Warm Coat," first organized in 1992.

Coldwell Banker Realtors collect warm coats, sweaters and jackets from the community and distribute them to the area's needy residents. The campaign, which started Monday, will run to Dec. 15.

Warm coat donors should drop their coats, jackets and sweaters at the Los Altos Coldwell Banker offices at 496 First St., Suite 100 or at 110 First St.

The coats will be delivered to Community Services Agency, who, in turn, will deliver them to St. Vincent De Paul in Mountain View. People who need clothing should go to Community Services Agency in Mountain View and ask for a voucher, then go to St. Vincent De Paul.

"This is something you can do that will be appreciated," said George Monaco, manager of Coldwell Banker. "The Realtors enjoy it too because they can keep in touch with their clients."
