Winter Coats

$15,000

This project is a project of Serving Hands International

This project is to purchase winter coats for 1000 of the poorest children in the La Morita, El Nino, and El Florido Colonias in the hills just east of Tijuana. These children have to walk miles to school during the cold winter months. They also live in shelters that often require them to wear heavy coats even when inside.
