United Way of Monmouth and Ocean Counties completed its 2020 Warmest Wishes Coat Drive for local preschool, elementary and middle school students in need.
Thanks to the generosity of 91 local organizations and individuals, 2,669 children in Monmouth and Ocean counties received a new coat this winter. More than 3,700 winter outerwear and holiday items were also distributed to children in 33 schools throughout the organization’s region. As a partner in the Operation Warm Up Jersey Shore initiative, United Way has now helped to supply its community with more than 5,000 coats, according to a press release.
“The Red Bank Borough schools are so thankful for our community partnership with United Way of Monmouth and Ocean Counties,” said Cathy Reardon, a registered nurse at the Red Bank Primary School.
