Volunteers at the Parrish Law Firm's 500 Coat Drive, collecting donations to ensure warmth for those in need during winter.
The Parrish Law Firm in Virginia has initiated its annual 500 Coat Drive, aimed at providing winter coats to residents in need across Northern Virginia. The coat drive encourages community participation and donations of gently used winter coats, with a goal of surpassing last year’s successful collection. Coats will be distributed through partnerships with local schools and organizations, ensuring assistance reaches families facing economic hardships during winter months.
The Parrish Law Firm, based in Manassas, Virginia, has announced the start of its annual 500 Coat Drive, which will officially begin on Tuesday, July 30, 2025. The initiative seeks to collect and distribute a minimum of 500 gently used winter coats to residents in Northern Virginia who may be in need during the colder months.
This coat drive is designed to provide warmth and comfort to individuals and families throughout the Northern Virginia region. The collected coats will be distributed locally, with partnerships established among schools, churches, and nonprofit organizations to ensure coats reach those who need them most. The effort emphasizes community support, especially for vulnerable populations facing harsh winter conditions.
The Parrish Law Firm encourages community participation by accepting donations at its office in Manassas. Starting from the launch date, July 30, 2025, residents can bring gently used coats to the firm’s location. The firm has set an ambitious goal, exceeding last year’s total of 516 coats donated. Donors are asked to contribute coats suitable for all ages and sizes to maximize the program’s reach and effectiveness.
Last year’s coat drive surpassed expectations, receiving 16 more coats than its goal, demonstrating strong community involvement and support. The success of this initiative highlights the firm’s ongoing commitment to community service and caring for local residents, especially as colder weather approaches.
The Parrish Law Firm, founded by Jim Parrish, is well known in the region for its legal expertise, particularly in handling personal injury cases, including car and truck accidents. The firm has recovered over $60 million for clients across Virginia. Beyond legal representation, the firm actively engages in community outreach, including initiatives like the coat drive and scholarships aimed at supporting local youth.
Jim Parrish, a former insurance defense attorney, established the firm with the mission of advocating for injury victims and giving back to the community. The coat drive reflects the firm’s core values of compassion and civic responsibility, emphasizing that every donated coat helps someone stay warm and safe during winter.
The 2025 500 Coat Drive embodies the firm’s dedication to acting as a supportive neighbor and contributing to the well-being of Northern Virginia residents. With a goal to collect at least 500 coats—surpassing last year’s record—the initiative underscores a continued commitment to community service and social responsibility in the region.
