In Dauphin, Coats for Kids is a program ran at the Dauphin Friendship Centre to help keep kids warm during the cold winter months.
The program exists because there’s a need for children to have coats when it gets cold out.
Robin Gambler, one of the coordinators at the Dauphin Friendship Centre, thinks people should donate because winter jackets can be very expensive and no one wants to see children going cold in the winter.
They started asking for donations a couple weeks ago when it got really cold. Donations are accepted at the Dauphin Friendship Centre and will be accepted for another month.
If you have a child in need of a jacket you can go to the Friendship Centre but everything is monitored to make sure someone doesn’t take too much.
