An update on the endeavor to provide coats to children in our area through the “Coats for Kids” fund raiser is coming along nicely. As of Wednesday, November 13th, 215 coats have been purchased with funds still coming in which will be used to continue purchasing coats until a goal of 230 coats is reached. ‘Coats for Kids’ provides warm winter coats for 8 different schools and 4 headstart programs within the Bates County area. The proceeds are kept local with all the coats being purchased through local Bates County merchants.
Your donations are still needed and may be dropped off or sent to the DSWA Office in Butler at 210 W. Ohio Street or you may send your donations directly to Larry and Carol Ann Winburn at 109 Ranch Drive, Butler. Any amount, big or small, will help reach the goal of purchasing 230 to 240 coats for the Coats for Kids program for 2013.
The Children thank you in advance for your donations. The deadline to donate in time for the delivery date will be announced at a later date. Each donation received will make you eligible in a drawing to win a grand prize.
