The Carson Valley Sertoma Club is pleased to report another successful Coat Drive season with 7,344 total warm clothing items, including 3,052 coats, sweaters, and jackets, collected and distributed. We are in awe of the generosity of the Carson City and Douglas County communities.

This year we were honored to receive corporate grants from the Walmart Foundation and Costco. Special collection events were organized by Pau Wa Lu Middle School, Douglas High School, Harrah’s/Harveys Lake Tahoe, and Starbuck’s Roasting Plant & Distribution Center.

A big thanks to the retail stores and community spaces that promoted and cared for our big blue barrels, in Carson City: Carson City Senior Center, Tractor Supply Co., Carson City Library, Benson’s Tack & Feed, Guild Mortgage, and Trader Joe’s, as well as the 20 locations in Douglas County.

We particularly want to thank the three anonymous angels who bought and placed in the barrels 12 new kids coats each. They came at just the right time and were provided to just the children who needed them most.

Please go to our website to see all the local support organizations that received these contributions, www.CarsonvalleySertoma.org .

Thanks again for your kindness to those who need warm coats each winter. We look forward to next year’s Coat Drive project.
