Donate to FPWC’s Mitten Tree for School Children

We nurture trees all year long, but for the holidays we are sponsoring a mitten tree!

Forest Preserves of Winnebago County invites the community to donate new mittens, gloves and hats at its Headquarters administration building. Items collected will be donated to students at Lathrop School who need warm winter gear. Lathrop is a RPS 205 school that FPWC has partnered with on community service projects. Hats, gloves and mittens are needed for children ages 5 -12. Please bring donated items to our mitten tree at 5500 Northrock Drive, Rockford, IL 61103 on Mondays through Fridays between 8:00 am and 5:00 pm. Mitten tree collection will wrap up on December 21, 2018. Call 815-877-6100 with questions.
