Thanks for Your Coats, Aberdeen!

Thanks for sharing your coats, Aberdeen.

Because of your donations, children at Hall's Cross Roads Elementary School were outfitted with proper winter attire around the holidays.

Our first coat drive in Aberdeen was a success, delivering about one to two dozen coats to the school around winter break.

We'll look to replicate the drive again next winter.

Still have some extra kid-size coats lying around? Awesome. You can contact the school, or reach out to me and I'll figure out how to get the coats there myself. My email is sean.welsh@patch.com.

Thanks for being great neighbors, Aberdeen! Let us know how we can help be better neighbors, too.
