We still are in the fall season, but there have been some cold days and there are numerous students who either don't have coats or are wearing coats that are too small. These students are embarrassed and are sometimes teased for their appearance; thus, they start their day angry and shut-down. I feel if I could provide a nice, warm coat that fits, it would mean a lot to them and appreciated by their parents who would not have the worry about finding the money to purchase a coat. The students will feel confident about their appearance and come to school ready to learn.
