Four Friends Hope to Help the Homeless Stay Warm This Winter

This time last year EsDEX, a local charitable organization, organized a clothing and blanket drive for Chattanooga’s homeless. They invited people to drop off winter clothes and blankets through the month leading up to Christmas. A few days before Christmas the four partners in EsDEX and a group of volunteers packaged the donations as gifts and handed them out to the homeless on the street. It was so successful they want to expand it this year. Erwin Davis, one of the partners in EsDEX, talked to Richard Winham about their plans.

Richard Winham joined WUTC five years after the station began broadcasting to the Chattanooga area and the Tennessee Valley.
