Every year, this local kid named Tavin does a collection for coats and blankets. This year is the 4th Annual Spread the Warmth Coat & Blanket Drive! All donations will go to help the homeless in central Arkansas, because the items will be given to The Van. There are eight drop-off locations around Bryant and Benton, plus Tavin will also host a neighborhood “Explode the Explorer with Warmth” Drive on Saturday, December 16th. This event is from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. at 10070 Rhinestone Dr, Alexander, AR 72002. For more details on the Saturday event, see facebook.com/events/565179507159347.
