$6,250 goal

Thousands of children in Delaware are facing the harsh reality of winter without a warm coat. But you can make a difference! This Do More 24, join us in ensuring that every child in our community has the warmth they need to thrive.

Why Warm Coats Matter:

Warm coats are essential for children's health, safety, and educational success. When kids have the appropriate outerwear, they can stay healthy and focused, ready to learn and engage in school activities regardless of the weather. 

The Impact of Your Donation:

By donating, you're directly supporting programs that provide warm coats to children in need across our state. Your contribution will help us purchase and distribute coats to schools and organizations serving families facing financial hardship. With your help, we can ensure that no child has to face the cold without proper protection.

When children lack basic necessities like warm coats, they're more likely to miss school due to illness or discomfort. This can lead to academic struggles and long-term consequences for their future success. By addressing the immediate need for warm coats, we're also investing in the educational success and well-being of Delaware's children.

Your donation, no matter the size, will make a meaningful difference in the lives of children in our community. Together, we can ensure that every child has the opportunity to stay warm, healthy, and ready to learn. Join us in making a positive impact this Do More 24!
