UPDATED: November 25, 2014

Thank You again to all that donated to our clothing, coat and food drive! Today we donated 4 huge bags full of about 50 coats, nice warm clothes, scarves, gloves and hats along with about 20lbs of food and the needed toiletries they had asked for. Again, THANK YOU  for all of your support!! Have a Happy Thanksgiving!! — Brian

A message from Community Affairs Manager Brian Rose:

Winter is just about here and once again, the District Attorney’s Office will do our part to assist and serve the need for warm clothing and food for people in need here in Bristol County.

This year, we will support United Neighbors of Fall River and the many families associated with this amazing group. They are looking for gently used coats (infant through adult) and also looking for toiletries, diapers, shelf stable microwavable food and deodorant for their homeless teens. Bring all you’ve got! No amount is too much…  they cannot get enough of these items!! 

This winter, join us in the spirit of helping others. Please look in your closets, pick up a few sale items before checking out at the store, or contribute directly from your pantry at home.
Collection boxes will be located in each of our county offices:

New Bedford Main Office 888 Purchase Street, New Bedford, MA 02740

Fall River District Court Office 218 South Main Street, Fall River, MA 02721

Attleboro District & Juvenile Court Office 120 North Main Street, Attleboro, MA 02703
