WJCS To The Rescue With Warm Winter Coats

When temperatures plummeted last week, a Yonkers elementary school was faced with an alarming situation: a six-year-old girl arrived in first grade shivering, without a coat. Before dismissal time, the child had been given a winter coat and was warmly dressed for the trip home. She is not alone, but is one of more than 600 children across Westchester County who had no winter coats as temperatures dipped. But thanks to WJCS Kids’ Kloset, they now have coats and are prepared for the season. WJCS Kids’ Kloset has tirelessly collected and distributed gently used coats as well as other necessities, but more are still needed. There’s a waiting list -- and many more weeks of winter remaining. Donations of new or gently used children’s coats are welcome. Click here to find out how you can donate or support Kids' Kloset at the March 8 Fashion Show Fundraiser.
