ALBANY, GA -- The One Warm Coat drive is almost over.

The donation box at fire station six on Meredyth Drive has had to be emptied numerous times because they received so many donations.

“We probably had 100 to 150 coats I’ve seen come through here,” says Captain Bobby Spargo with the Albany Fire Department.

The drive is scheduled to end Monday, but some fire stations will have boxes until the end of the week.

All 11 fire stations should have donation boxes all day Monday.
