SAVANNAH, Ga. (WSAV) - Canady's Heating, Air and Plumbing is partnering with United Way of the Coastal Empire (UWCE) for the fifth annual Canady's Coats for Kids Campaign.
The company collects donations of new, unused coats for children of all ages ranging from infant to 17 years old.
“We’re excited to celebrate the fifth year of our Canady’s Coats for Kids Campaign,” Fred Canady, Founder of Canady’s Heating, Air and Plumbing, said. “Each year, the community has been so generous in donating new coats for children in need in Bryan, Chatham, Effingham, and Liberty Counties.”
The Canady's Coats for Kids Campaign kicked off on Monday, December 2, and runs through Thursday, January 2, 2025. Canady's will deliver the coats for distribution to the United Way of the Coastal Empire on the following Tuesday, Jan. 7. UWCE will distribute the coats to member agencies serving children in need.
There are donation sites at Belk at Oglethorpe Mall, Canady’s offices on Wilmington Island and in Richmond Hill, and several convenient United Way locations through which to give. Collection boxes will sit in each donation site’s lobby from Dec. 2 through Jan. 2.
