"Coats for Kids" Drive at Valley View Elementary School

September 13, 2014

Valley View Elementary School is beginning its annual Coats for Kids drive Monday, September 15. Anyone may drop off gently used, clean coats with working zippers. Hats, gloves, boots and scarves are also needed. Items may be dropped off during Valley View’s office hours, 8:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m., Monday through Thursday. We are located at 6750 Augusta Street in Bonners Ferry. Drop boxes will also be available at local grocery stores. Do you know a child who needs a coat for this winter? (Or hats, gloves, boots, or scarves?) Distribution of the donated coats will begin at Valley View on Tuesday, October 7, during the same school hours. A parent or other adult must accompany a child to choose winter clothing items. A staff member could assist a Valley View student to select a coat, if the parent/guardian makes arrangements. Please contact RaNae Barker at Valley View, 267-5519, if you have any questions. Valley View staff, who organizes this annual project, thank you for your generous support.
