Letter to the Editor Keystone Coats for Kids, Ending

I regret that I will no longer be collecting money for the Keystone Coats for Kids. It was with great joy that I was able to be able to continue this great outreach for 10 years with the help of the community, and the past two years, the McElhattan Foundation.

For many reasons, including no longer having a place to keep and distribute coats and the loss of the McElhattan grant this year, I will be closing the account at Farmers National Bank. The balance will be given to the Keystone School District. The coats that are left will be distributed to schools and SAFE.

The total count of coats distributed was 4,518, 274 pairs of boots, 854 pairs of shoes, over 600 handmade caps, several scarves that were also handmade and over 100 pairs of gloves.

Again, I would like to thank everyone that supported this outreach.

God Bless,

Glenda Raybuck
