Staying Warm in PA!

Help me give my students winter coats to get them through the cold months in northeast PA!

My Project

My students are all wonderful and excited individuals who are excited to come to school each day and learn!

Sometimes, students don't come to school with the proper materials necessary to have the most successful day, such as warm clothing in the winter months.

The winter coats requested will all be used for students who we see come into school without a warm winter coat. It is so important to be able to provide our students with such a necessity not just in school but at home too.
