Every year DSWA receives contributions from customers, friends, and organizations throughout the Bates County area. Then, with the help of school nurses and teachers from eight area schools who know where the need lies, every dollar is used to purchase coats, jackets and lined hoodies for deserving pre-school, elementary and secondary students. This year 225 brand new warm coats have been delivered.


A huge thank you goes to all the generous contributors who helped put warm smiles on so many young faces.
