Keeping Kenosha Warm this Winter
The Warming Chests have arrived in Downtown Kenosha with a creative new look in special thanks to members of the Teen Center at the Boys & Girls Club of Kenosha. The members utilized art supplies donated by Dooley & Associates to repaint the chests that were looking weathered after three Wisconsin winters.
Dooley & Associates and Anna’s on the Lake are currently collecting donations to help keep the chests full that are conveniently accessible on each side of Downtown Kenosha, at Anna’s on the Lake at 5159 6th Ave. and Herzing University at 5800 7th Ave on the south side.
Please consider donating new or gently used warm items of any size this winter:
- Hats
- Scarves
- Mittens/Gloves
- Socks
- Hand/Foot Warmers
If you’d like to mail donations, please send them to:
Dooley & Associates
600 52nd Street, Suite 200
Kenosha, WI 53140
Additional chests remain at the ELCA Urban Outreach Center at 6218 26th Avenue and a warming tree is available at the Shalom Center at 4314 39th Avenue.
This project was started by the crew at Dooley & Associates three years ago in memory of a gentleman that froze on a bench in Downtown Kenosha. Our hope was to create free access to warm items for any member of the community that needs them at any time.
