It's COLD outside!

I'm sure the COLD weather prompted many of us to pull out the winter clothes. Wearing extra layers may now be a way of life - or it was for a few days this week. And it will be again!

Yes, it will warm up for a few days, maybe even for a week or so. But we all know the COLD weather is right around the corner.

Unfortunately, some folks don't have winter coats to help them brave the COLD weather when they go outside.

So the question is - can we help? Did we find 'extra' coats when we pulled out our winter clothes earlier this week?

Face it - we can only wear one coat at a time. Consider donating extra coats to the Winter Coat Drive. Children's coats are especially needed. Many adult coats have been donated, but there is a shortage of children's coats.

So I guess the question is not really - can we help? The real question is - will we help?

Something for us all to think about.
