    Description

    Coat Sorting-

    Imagine you're 12-years-old and without a coat. And it's winter. Can you see yourself shivering in the cold? Imagine that your family visits a Salvation Army Coat Boutique and is assisted by a friendly volunteer who hands your parent a warm coat, just your size. Each year, thousands of children residing in the metro area - from infants to 17 year-olds - receive a warm coat for the winter through Coats for Kids. And you can be the one to help put the coat in their hands and a smile on their face.
