COLUMBUS, Miss. (WCBI) – The Fitness Factor along with United Way are getting into the season of giving with their 2nd annual “Blessings of Blankets” donation drive.

The Columbus gym is accepting newly bought throws and blankets that will be donated to other charities such as Safe Haven, Salvation Army and the Contact Help Line.
They will be distributed to those without heat or can’t afford high heating bills this Winter.

“We felt like there was a need in the community and a lot of people really want to give, but they really just don’t know where to give it and where to drop things off.  So we’re actually that intercessor between us and and the United Way so that people can feel free to drop off.”

Fitness Factor is accepting blanket donations through December 17th.
