Coats for Kids drive commences, seeking winter
clothing for area children |
October 3, 2015 |
Valley View Elementary is now conducting its
annual Coats for Kids drive. Anyone may drop off
their gently used, clean coats, with working
zippers. These items will be made
available to children who need warm clothing for
the winter months.
Hats, gloves, boots and scarves are also needed.
Items may be dropped off during Valley View’s
office hours, 8:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m., Monday
through Thursday. Valley View Elementary is
located at 6750 Augusta Street in Bonners Ferry.
Drop boxes will be available at Safeway, Super
1, Harvest Foods, Yoder’s, and The Bread Basket.
Distribution of the donated coats will begin at
Valley View, on Tuesday, October 13, during the
same school hours as listed above. Any Boundary
County child in need of winter clothing is
welcome. A parent or other adult must accompany
a child to choose winter clothing items. A staff
member could assist a Valley View student to
select a coat, if the parent/guardian makes
arrangements.
Please contact RaNae Barker at Valley View
Elementary, 267-5519, for further information.
Valley View Elementary staff thanks Boundary
County for its generous support of this effort. |
