Keeping hands, feet, heads
and hearts warm.
Regina’s Winter Drive assembles and delivers Bags of Love — winter survival kits packed with coats, hats, gloves and warm essentials — to neighbors across Northeast Ohio.
“How can we help to keep them warm?”— Regina Bess, Founder
One day to keep our neighbors warm all winter.
On Giving Tuesday, communities everywhere come together to give back. This year, help us fill Bags of Love for neighbors across Stark, Summit, and Cuyahoga counties. Every coat, hat, and blanket starts with someone like you.

A winter drive that became a movement
Since 2017, Regina’s Winter Drive has grown from a small neighborhood winter clothing collection into Bag of Love — an annual campaign that brings together volunteers, donors and local partners to pack and deliver warmth to people who need it most.
Every bag is packed by hand, by people right here in our community.
