Project Info
The campaign is collecting new coats and new boots to help clothe over 10,000 needy children, women, men residing in distressed communities throughout metropolitan Detroit, Michigan and other Wayne counties for the next four consecutives years of the campaign.
During the four year campaign the organization goal is to raise $200,000.00 and collect over 10,000 coats and boots to help clothe and shoes the needy throughout southeastern Michigan, including Wayne, Oakland, Macomb and Monroe counties. We will recruit at least 100 volunteers to help with the campaign.
The program will distribute new coats and new boots to needy children for back to school and/or during the holiday seasons. The program will serve Wayne, Macomb and Oakland counties. The program was implemented since 80% of households lives at or below the poverty rate in southeastern Michigan and other Wayne counties, and many of these children does not have a coat and/or boots to carry them through the winter months, so we seek your support in helping us to provide these needy children with a new coat and new boots for the winter months.
