The Greater Vancouver Home Builders' Association (GVHBA) has launched its 19th annual Coats for Kids campaign in support of the Lower Mainland Christmas Bureau, a group whose outreach helps to provide a brighter Christmas for families in need.
Forty-five member companies in 13 municipalities, including Delta, will serve as coat drop-off sites until Dec. 4. "Last year the response to Coats for Kids was heartwarming as Lower Mainland residents donated more than 3,000 coats, scarves, gloves, blankets and new unwrapped toys and gifts for distribution to children, teenagers and adults," said GVHBA chair Ron Rapp.
"Building on this success, we are asking people to consider hoodies for hard-to-buy-for teens. We want to make sure we have everyone covered."
