One Good Thing: Operation Warm

Every child at a local elementary school got a brand new winter coat

HOLLAND, Michigan — No kid should ever have to worry about how to stay warm during winter. Now, many won't have to.

Every single child at Holland Heights Elementary has a new winter coat, thanks to Operation Warm. The national nonprofit picks different schools every year to receive the coats, always based on need. This year, Lake Trust Foundation donated the coats, and on Oct. 14, members from Lake Trust Credit Union were at the school to watch the kids pick their new coat. By the way, Operation Warm did this exact same thing at two other Michigan schools: one in Lansing and one in Detroit.

No kid should ever be cold. One Good Thing today to Operation Warm and the Lake Trust Foundation for getting so many kids so many winter coats.
