This Fits 2011 Holiday Gift Guide It was unusually cold last Sunday when I walked into church and took a long look at the collection box we’d set up for a local coat drive. Feeling the chill cutting through my suit, it was heart-breaking to think there are people out there who are unable protect themselves and their families from the elements. So the next time I came to church, I brought something with me—a vintage, “made in the USA” London Fog coat with a warm zip-out liner. I’d been meaning to flip it on eBay or take it to the tailor, but instead it’d been hanging neglected in my closet. Someone else certainly needed it more than me. I added it to the pile. Predictions say the 2011-2012 winter season will be “brutally cold.”  If you have a coat or jacket that’s been sitting in your closet for months, please donate it at a local coat drive. Don’t have a coat to spare? Consider last year’s gift guide instead.
