Wrap-A-Friend Coat Drive Kids Care
|
Mission
The mission of the Wrap-A-Friend Coat Drive is to provide warm winter clothing to anyone
in need.
What We Do
We collect all the donated winter coats during early spring from all our co-sponsors.
Throughout the spring and summer; we clean and repair any coat in need. We do not give
away coats that we would not give to a family member.
Who Receives the Winter Coats
100 % of all the winter coats that we give away will go to homeless families or individuals
and those in shelters. Agencies that we contribute to are:
- Crossroads
- Providence Center
- Welcome Arnold Shelter
- Child Inc.
+ As well as our distribution day on the last Saturday in October, which serves Rhode
Island residents in need.
Goals:
- To develop our Kids Care program which involves all schools in each school district.
- To find a building to store and work in while we inspect clean, repair, and distribute the
winter coats.
