Benefits New York Cares. I think it's 9 AM-5 PM.

Donate a coat & get voucher for free pair of tickets in April (choose from certain gms -- NOT including Opening Day). Can redeem voucher online only in March.

Player or 2 usually show up at some point for photo op.

Do something good & get free tix. Win-win.

Bump.

Give a coat to someone who desperately needs it. Get yourself FREE tickets for April 2013 gm (NOT OD though). NO $$$ goes to Wilpon. In fact Wilpon LOSES $$$ on this. Giving away tickets he gets nothing for. You can bring your own food to the gm & they let you bring in water. Take public transit to FREE gm in April (or park on street 1 or 2 stops away on #7 train line). Again -- NO $$$ for Wilpon in this deal.

Get warm feeling from doing something good. And FREE pair of April tix!!!
