Hello Ingots! The Coats for Kids and Families Organization are collecting new and gently used clean WINTER coats. Winter is cold and our hope is to make sure that all students and adults have a winter coat to help them stay warm throughout all the cold weather. Please help us meet our community's needs and donate a winter coat. Coat collection will go until October 29th. Coats can be dropped off at one of the elementary schools and/or Middle/High School. Thank you for your help.
