Homelessness Advocate to Hold Winter Clothing Giveaway

"Jennifer Livovich, founder of the nonprofit homelessness advocacy organization Streetscape, will be giving away approximately 3,000 articles of clothing, including women’s and men’s coats, snow pants and boots, by Arctix Apparel.

Livovich received the clothing through the Dakota Project by Arctix, a program with the goal of donating 108,000 new outerwear items, or $5.2 million in merchandise, to homeless shelters and nonprofits serving unhoused populations across the country.

The idea for the project came from Arctix Chair Matthew Bruderman’s teenage daughter, Dakota, who was interested in doing work to help the unhoused. Bruderman partnered with Zeldin Cares, a New York-based charity group, for the project."
