Operation
Warm:
More
than a
Coat, a
non-profit
organization
that
provides
brand
new
coats to
children
in need,
provided
students
at
Greenfield
Union
Elementary-Middle
School
with
nearly
100 warm
coats on
Thursday,
March 5.
In
total,
the
organization
has
provided
9,163
new
coats to
DPS to
be
distributed
this
week.
Operation
Warm was
originated
in 2002
and
works
with
community-based
organizations
to both
select
and
distribute
coats to
children
in need.
“This is
a
wonderful
gift for
students,”
said
Greenfield
Union
Principal
Beverly
Campbell.
“The new
coats
make it
possible
for our
students
to get
to
school
warm and
ready to
learn,
as well
as keep
them
from
risking
their
health,
since
many
walk to
and from
school
daily.”
