Walton's sponsors coat and sweater drive through November
As they’ve done in years past, Walton’s Funerals and Cremations is collecting new and gently used coats, sweaters and gloves throughout the month of November for homeless veterans in Northern Nevada.
“These are people who were willing to risk their lives for our country, and now many of them don’t have the resources they need to stay warm throughout the winter,” said Tammy Dermody, owner of Walton’s. “This is something small we can do for them.”
New or gently used sweaters, jackets and gloves can be dropped off at any Walton’s location, and then they’ll be distributed to Lassen County Veterans Services in Susanville, as well as the Homeless Veterans Outreach Program in Reno, for distribution to local veterans.

Walton's Funerals & Cremations - Chapel of the Valley, 1281 North Roop St.
