Keep Philadelphia Warm This Winter
No child, family, or neighbor should face the cold without a coat. The PVTC Community Coat Drive is our city’s newest united effort to bring warmth and safety to those who need it most.
This first-of-its-kind drive from Provision Vocational Training Center is more than a seasonal effort, it is a community movement. Together with businesses, neighbors, and partners across Philadelphia, we are making sure families can step into winter with comfort and protection.
​
You can help. Donate new coats at our two S&T Bank drop-off locations in the Philadelphia area, contribute funds, or join us as a community partner. Every action brings us closer to a warmer, healthier Philadelphia.
​
Join us. Be part of the change. Wrap our city in care this winter.
Our Commitment to Community
At PVTC, our work has always been about more than training or development. It is about people. We believe that safety, stability, and community support are the foundation of every strong neighborhood. When our neighbors are cared for, our entire city thrives.
​
The PVTC Community Coat Drive is a reflection of that belief. Just as we equip individuals with the skills and resources to build better futures through our workforce, housing, and entrepreneurship programs, we also respond to the immediate needs of the community. Something as simple as a warm coat can be the first step toward safety, confidence, and hope.
​
Our commitment is to stand with Philadelphia year-round, offering not only opportunities for growth but compassion and care when it matters most. Together, we can continue to build a city where everyone is supported, protected, and seen.
