“I like that we have to help people in our community that it’s cold out here. We can help people.” said Little Lion, Abby Southern.

All the coats will be thoroughly cleaned by our Warmth 4 Winter partner, Legacy Cleaners. They will then make sure thy coats are delivered by our other partner, Two Men And A Truck and taken to The Salvation Army so they can be distributed to Oklahomans in need.
