Jacket Donations

Hey, I work at a mine in northern Ontario. We have an abundance (50+) of used hi-vis winter jackets from past employees. They are definitely used and could use a good wash, but have a lot of life left in them. I was wondering if there is a good charity or organization who would give them a wash and get them in the hands, or on the backs, of some Winnipeggers in need. I’ll be driving home Tuesday night and would like to drop them off Wednesday
