My Project

As we approach the cold winter months, many children in our school communities, especially those from low-income families, are struggling to stay warm due to the lack of essential winter accessories such as coats, gloves, scarves, and boots. These basic items are not always affordable for every family, leaving some students vulnerable to the harsh conditions and making it harder for them to fully engage in their education.

This year, we are inviting you to make a direct impact by supporting one of our specific winter accessory donation projects.

Your generous contribution will ensure that all children in our school communities have what they need to stay warm and healthy throughout the winter.

Here are the projects you can choose to support:

Our Winter Coats and Jackets Drive will provide children with warm, durable coats to protect them from the cold. Your donation will help ensure that every child has a jacket that fits and keeps them warm.

The Hats, Gloves, and Scarves Collection will help us provide essential accessories such as hats, gloves, and scarves to keep students' heads, hands, and necks warm during chilly school days.

Winter Boots and Thermal Socks are crucial for kids to stay active and comfortable in snow or wet conditions. Your donation will help provide these essential items.

No matter which project you choose to support, your contribution will make a lasting difference in the lives of children and families who need it most. Together, we can ensure that every student is prepared for the winter and can focus on their education without the worry of the cold.

Thank you for your generosity and commitment to making our community stronger. We look forward to partnering with you to bring warmth to those who need it most this winter.
