why it's important:

I know that being cold is the a bad feeling. When you are in the cold wheather you can cause anything from a runny nose to the flu, which can cause death. I know a lot of people have coats that they haven't put on in years. So why not give to those in need.

Start a drive and try to raise money for this cause.

Donations of money to buy coats or giving the coats away to be given to people in need of one.
