Ballarat store manager Luke Gibson said a jacket in the back of your closet could make the outdoor elements a little more bearable.
“This great initiative is a chance for us to give to those less fortunate,” Mr Gibson said. “Your old unwanted snow gear will make a world of difference.”
There will be collection boxes in-store for people to leave donations. Thermals, gloves, pants, hats or other winter apparel will also be accepted. Donations must be clean and undamaged.
