The Parrish Law Firm's 500 Coat Drive - Many of us are lucky to have our pick of coats based on weather conditions outdoors. Unfortunately, many of our community's women, children and men are not so lucky. In 2021, we had a goal of gathering 100 coats and our final tally was 273 coats! We knew with the right amount of effort, we could increase our original goal by at least 500%!
