At the start of 2024, Strictly Apple launched Strictly Giving, a dedicated branch focused solely on giving back to our community. In August, we provided meals and school supplies to 500 children, setting them up for a successful school year. Now, as the holiday season approaches, we're aiming to make an even greater impact.
If you’ve spent time in Ohio, you know how harshly cold winter nights can be. Not everyone in our community has the essentials to stay warm, and we’re determined to change that. Our goal this Christmas season is to distribute 1,000 coats to those in need—and we need your help to make it happen.
We've partnered with the local charity organization, Jordan’s Crossing, and together, we’re collecting winter essentials: coats, gloves, hats, and scarves. You can support in a few ways:
- Purchase from Our Amazon Wishlist: We’ve curated an Amazon list for easy ordering; items ship directly to us.
- Drop Off or Mail Gently Used or New Gear: High-quality coats and gear will last longer and provide warmth for winters to come. Drop-off locations are listed below.
- Make a Donation: 100% of proceeds go toward purchasing winter gear for this event. Every dollar helps!
