This year TENz has partnered with New York Cares to support the 30th Annual New York Cares Coat Drive. Our goal was to create dynamic visual campaign that would catch the attention of our local LGBT community and drive donations with tag line – “Donate A Fab Coat. We know you have a few!”
On December 26th TENz collected over 100 coats at Posh Bar & Lounge where attendees enjoyed beats by DJ John Marto, cocktails by Kedwin Zapata and outstanding drag show featuring Octavia Anyae & Kristy Blaze.
The number of children, families and individuals throughout the city in need of warm coats is higher than ever. By joining our efforts and rallying your community, you are making a difference for so many New Yorkers, who might otherwise be forced to make a choice between buying a coat and putting food on the table. Last year, with the help of volunteers like you over 104,000 coats were distributed to New Yorkers. New York Cares partners with homeless shelters, community centers, public schools, and religious institutions have requested more than 130,000 coats for the New Yorkers they serve this winter.
