Come to our evening program and help us give out coats collected to the inner-city children we serve. Help keep them organized throughout the night. The coats will be sorted by size.
All you need to do is assist the children as they come to pick out their coat and help make sure it fits them properly. Once they find the coat that fits, we ask you to write their name on it and ensure all tags are cut off so no one can return the coat.

Best of all, you get to come and have fun with kids that will brighten your day!
