Original post with all the details:
Dear parents & families,
As the weather starts getting colder, student needs start to really stand out. There are many students living in Camden County that do not have the means to buy a coat. Coats for Kids in Camden County is collecting gently used and new coats in an effort to give a coat to every child in Camden County that needs one. If you would like to donate a coat to Coats for Kids in Camden County just drop it off at school. If you have a child that is in need of a coat, please, fill out the bottom of this form https://5il.co/3154k and return it to school with your child. We would like to have all donations to the school by DECEMBER 6th to be able to distribute them before Christmas break. If you have any questions please contact our school counselor, Mrs. Ellen Graw egraw@camden.k12.ga.us
