WAYLAND, Mass., Dec. 10, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- ohDEER, a leader in all-natural pest control, launched its first annual coat drive in partnership with Coats for Kids & Families and Anton's Cleaners. Across its five Massachusetts locations, MetroWest, Nashoba Valley, South Shore, Cape Cod, and North Shore, ohDEER collected over 2,000 coats to help local families stay warm this winter.

The initiative, designed for convenience, enabled customers to donate coats during their scheduled pest control services. As technicians visited clients for services, they left a bag and a postcard detailing the coat drive and explaining how clients could donate unwanted winter coats by placing them in the provided bag and leaving them outside on the day of their next service. Anton's Cleaners is now washing and preparing the donations for distribution to families statewide, making the process seamless and maximizing the number of coats collected.

"At ohDEER, our mission extends beyond pest control," said Colleen Upham, owner and co-founder of ohDEER. "Giving back to our community is a cornerstone of our values, and we're honored to make a meaningful impact by providing warmth to families in need."

ohDEER plans to make the coat drive an annual tradition while continuing its commitment to community-driven initiatives. For more information, visit ohDEER Coat Drive.

The coat drive continues until January 5^th. Donations are accepted at any Anton's Cleaners, Enterprise Bank or Jordan's Furniture.
