Newsroom@DominionPost.com

It’s that time of year when West Virginians begin to switch wardrobes from summer fashions to winter apparel and the dental offices of Wilson Martino Dental, The Smile Defenders and TLC Dental are helping residents clean out their closets.

 Donations for the 2020 Coats for Our Community Coat Drive are being accepted Monday through Nov. 30 at all Wilson Martino Dental, Smile Defender and TLC Dental locations.

“The annual coat drive is something we all look forward to,” said Dr. Robert Martino, CEO and founder of the Coats for Our Community event. “The coat drive has been very successful so far, collecting thousands of coats that are distributed to those in need. This event is just one of the things we do to give back to the community that has given us so much. We want to help our neighbors and this is a great way to show how much we care about the people of West Virginia.”
