We are really excited to kick off the 1st annual ESD led Coats for Kids program today! Please dig deep in your closet and bring new and gently used winter gear to our colorful donation boxes at the ESD Central office. We need all sizes, so Women’s and Men’s adult Large and XL are great as well as all children’s sizes. Coats, hoodies, sweaters, beanies, scarves, gloves, socks and boots (yes boots!) bring anything you want to pay forward.
We have partnered with The Next Door, Mid-Columbia Community Action Council and The Coffee Shop to collect and distribute warm winter gear donations to over 25 local kids in immediate need. We will serve over 50 families between now and January so please donate what you can as it will all go to keep a child warm this winter. Once boxes are full, we will deliver to The Next Door and MCCAC and repeat throughout the cold season.
