This fall, help bring the spirit of America's favorite neighbor to the West Michigan community as WGVU and Member First Mortgage present the Mister Rogers' Neighborhood Sweater Drive. Running October 27 through December 5th, the drive will benefit several west Michigan organizations:

  •  In the Image in downtown Grand Rapids
  •  Allegan County United Way
  •  Community Action House of Holland
  •  Charitable Union of Battle Creek
  •  The Kalamazoo Salvation Army
  •  Love, Inc. of Muskegon County
  • TRAM Three Rivers Area Mentoring
  • St. Joseph County Homeless Shelter
  • Branch County United Way

"All of us, at some time or other, need help," said Fred Rogers, "and whether we're giving or receiving a sweater, each one of us has something valuable to bring to this world. That's one of the things that connects us as neighbors - in our way, everyone is a giver and receiver."

Mister Rogers' Neighborhood airs on WGVU TV Sunday mornings at 9:30am and 10:00am.
The Sweater Drive happens at PBS stations across the country.
