Winter Coat Giveaway for Kids
We are less than three months away from the official beginning of winter and Christmas. It's warm now but this weekend, it starts to cool down. There are people in our area that are looking for coats and boots to help them keep warm.
Do you have a coat (or coats) or boots that you don't need anymore? Here's a way to help those in our area.
Project Concern, 23 Kattelville Road in Chenango Bridge is having their annual winter coat/boot giveaway. It's Monday, October 10th-14th from 2p-4p and October 17th-21st from 2-4. It's more than coats and boots. It's also snow pants, hats, gloves, and scarves.
They only ask for a $2 donation to help keep the lights on. My wife, Dawn is a volunteer and they've been preparing for months for the annual winter coat/boot giveaway.
