Submitted by  Jim Galvin, Deputy Grand Knight St. Ann Canadian's all know the value of warm Winter clothing. Sadly, not all have the means for this Canadian necessity. The Coats for Kids program ensures that no child in need goes without a winter coat.

This year, the 11 boxes of new winter jackets were donated to the Hamilton Wentworth Catholic District School Board and  Peel District School Board. #SpreadingtheWarmth
