CALUMET -- The Angel Mission in Calumet is holding a coat drive this Saturday.

With winter on its way, the Angel Mission wants to make sure that people in need have warm coats. Organizers say they're still in need of coats, so if you have a coat you're no longer wearing and it's still in good condition, you can drop it off at the store anytime this week.

"On October 20, which is this weekend, we're going to put all the coats out with hats, boots, gloves and mittens for everybody to come and get warm clothes for the winter," said Angel Mission Director Terry Bazin.

Anyone in need of a coat can pick one up starting at 9 a.m. this Saturday. The Angel Mission also says their food pantry is getting low and they're offering a free pizza party to one group and a person that can bring in the most food.
