The first chill of fall is in the air, which means that colder weather is surely on the way. The Drug-Free Coalition of Granville County has launched its second annual Coats for Kids campaign to help area families in need.
The goal is to collect 200 new coats, hats, scarves and gloves for children and teenagers by Dec. 11. Donations may be dropped off at the coalition office, 912 College St., Oxford or at the office of the Granville Chamber of Commerce, 120 Hillsboro St.
The winter outerwear donations will be collected and delivered to the Flat River Baptist Association for distribution.
In addition to clothing, monetary donations also are welcomed. Make checks payable to Drug-Free Coalition of Granville County, Inc. or use the cash app $TeamDFC.
