The holiday season may be over, but the giving hasn’t stopped! Thank you, Park 9 office complex tenants, for donating winter hats and gloves to children in need.

Over the past two months, tenants of the Park 9 office complex in Wellesley have collected new winter hats and gloves for the JFS Children’s Clothing Closet. Rather than using a traditional donation bin, Property Manager and project-leader Paulette Nicoliello set up a tree for donors to hang items. Tenants of the Park 9 office complex include Morgan Stanley, who hosted a Build-a-Backpack event this past summer.

JFS is grateful for the incredible generosity of the Park 9 tenants!

About the JFS Children’s Clothing Closet: Launched in 2016, the JFS Children’s Clothing Closet provides a seasonal response to the clothing needs of the elementary school-age children in the Metrowest community, with a specific focus on the most economically challenged schools in Framingham. The three-pronged operational model includes seasonal Ready to Wear packages, pop-up shopping events, and individual/family emergency distributions. Current partners include the Harmony Grove and Brophy Elementary Schools and Framingham Adult ESL Plus.
