The "9 Coats for Kids Drive" is currently underway, with every Charlotte Fire House acting as a collection point for essential winter wear. Fire officials expressed their commitment to this initiative, seeing it as another vital way to support the community.
Firefighters shared personal motivations for their involvement, highlighting the necessity of providing warm clothing for children. They described seeing young ones at bus stops without proper jackets, shivering in the cold, which fuels their dedication to this cause.
