Kent County, MI – The Kent County Sheriff’s Office (KCSO) is partnering with the nonprofit 70×7 this holiday season to bring warmth and comfort to children of incarcerated parents through its Christmas Pajama Drive. Donations of new pajamas for infants through age 15 are being accepted through December 15 at several KCSO locations across the county.
According to the Sheriff’s Office, many of these children face difficult emotional challenges during the holidays, and a simple gift can provide a sense of normalcy and care. “A simple pair of pajamas can bring warmth, comfort, and a little sense of normal during a tough time,” KCSO shared in a recent post.
New pajama donations can be dropped off at:
- 2950 Clyde Park Ave SW, Wyoming
- KCSO Main Lobby, 701 Ball Ave NE
- KCSO Jail Lobby, 703 Ball Ave NE
- KCSO North, 4191 17 Mile Rd, Cedar Springs
- KCSO South, 8557 Kalamazoo Ave SE, Caledonia
Organizers emphasize that all items must be new. The drive runs through mid-December, giving West Michigan residents several weeks to contribute to this local act of kindness.
Those wishing to participate are encouraged to donate early to help ensure every child receives pajamas in time for Christmas.
