Brookville Knights of Columbus Provide Winter Coats for Area Children

BROOKVILLE, Pa. (EYT) – The Brookville Knights of Columbus Council 3966 recently presented coats to the Jefferson County Children and Youth Services as part of its ‘Coats for Kids’ campaign.

The Coats for Kids campaign is an annual event sponsored by the Knights of Columbus.

The campaign allows Knights of Columbus councils across North America the opportunity to purchase new winter coats for children at a discount and to distribute them to children in need in their local communities.

Since the program began in 2009, more than 306,000 coats have been distributed nationwide.
