Happy New Year!

It's September! Happy New Year! Labor Day is a little like New Year's Day for the staff at One Warm Coat. Each September, we release a new Guidebook, update our materials and get ready for LOTS of activity for the coming fall and winter months.

And, yes, we do set "New Year's" Resolutions and Goals. This September, as we begin our eighth year as a national effort, our goal is 1 MILLION coats. Resolutions are centered around building a team of great staff members to support the ever-increasing number of coat drives.

The need for coats this year will be greater than ever. Together, with our amazing group of volunteers and increased sponsorship activity, we will make a difference in the lives of thousands.
