MWS Coat Drive Benefits Many!

The MWS Student Council, in concert with the support of many parent volunteers, conducted our annual Fall Coat Drive this past week. The purpose of this community service project is to provide other MWS students and families with warm outdoor clothing they can enjoy throughout the winter months. Items such as child/adult coats, snow pants, hats, mittens, boots, scarves, headbands, and earmuffs were collected on several different occasions by MWS students. From there, parent volunteers took all of the collected items, laundered them, and brought them back to MWS to organize for our Family Support Worker to distribute.

Here are the results of what was collected:

39 Children's Coats
22 Adult Coats
16 Pairs of Snowpants
36 Hats
35 Pairs of Mittens
6 Pairs of Boots
7 Scarves
4 Headbands
1 Pair of Earmuffs


A special thank you to each MWS family that contributed to the success of this important service project for our MWS Student Council. This is yet another example of how we, when we are working together, can make a huge difference in our community. Great work!
