GIVE A KID A COAT 2015 CAMPAIGN ENTERS FINAL WEEK

The 2015 Give A Kid A Coat campaign is entering its final week, and we are currently 95 coats behind week four of last year.  To date, Give A Kid A Coat for 2015 has received 11,061 coats.

Jared Pike, with 1075 WKZL says:  “I love being the father of my two children more than anything in this world.  It would break my heart if they had to go without a warm jacket during the cold winter months.  I am grateful for Give A Kid A Coat and their selfless mission of providing a warm winter coat to every child in the Triad!  I’m going to our coat closet right now to find a few more coats we can donate this year.”  

If you would like to donate a coat to keep a child or adult warm this winter, simply drop off an outgrown coat or a coat no longer needed at the nearest A Cleaner World location.  A Cleaner World will clean and repair the coats and then send them to The Salvation Army for distribution.  Families in need of coats can visit www.acleanerworld.com/GiveaKidaCoat.aspx to check on distribution times and locations as these vary by city.  If you don’t have a coat to donate but would still like to help, The Salvation Army has set up a special page for monetary donations.  Donations will be used to purchase new coats in much needed sizes and to help offset Salvation Army expenses associated with distributing coats.

Give A Kid A Coat is sponsored by A Cleaner World, The Salvation Army, Fox8/WGHP, 1075KZL, Rock92, and Campers Inn.  This year’s campaign ends on Saturday, November 14, 2015.
