End of the 2025 Jacket Donation Initiative

More than 590 winter coats were collected in Chlorophylle stores across Quebec.

From November 13 to December 17, 2025, Chlorophylle successfully held the seventh edition of its coat donation initiative. We are proud to announce that more than 590 coats were collected in our stores across Quebec and redistributed to local partner organizations.


Donors were invited to add a message of hope in the pocket of the donated coat. These heartfelt messages brought an extra layer of warmth, making the act of giving even more meaningful.

Give happiness and warmth

At Chlorophylle, we believe that every gesture, no matter how small, can have a big impact. A coat is more than just protection from the cold — it’s a symbol of warmth, safety, and solidarity. One coat can travel through time, faces, and seasons to warm yet another heart.

Your donations directly support:

  • Families with limited budgets,
  • Youth experiencing homelessness,
  • Justice-involved women working to regain their independence,
  • People living in financial hardship,
  • Newcomers adapting to their first winter.

Each Chlorophylle store partners with a local organization to distribute these coats free of charge to those in need.

These are the nicest coats we receive. As soon as they arrive, they’re gone like hotcakes! They’re true gifts, exceptionally high quality. Thanks to you, young people stay warm.”
— Joey Gallant, Dans la rue organization, Montréal

Heartwarming Testimonials!

There are nights when I can’t sleep. Not because I don’t want to… but because I’m too cold. This coat changed everything. And most of all… it made me feel that I still matter to someone. 

Outside, the cold seeps right into your bones. This coat is more than warmth: it’s proof that people think of me. 

When you don’t have a roof over your head, winter is frightening. This coat is more than warmth, it’s dignity. Thank you.”
