🧥❤️ 1,800 COATS. One Community. A Lasting Impact.
It’s no secret that many children in the Youngstown community face challenges accessing basic essentials. Through Operation Warm, the Rotary Club of Youngstown is helping ensure that children have the warm coats they need to get to school, even on the coldest and snowiest Ohio days. ❄️
This year, we expanded our reach to provide 1,800 coats to students across all five Youngstown elementary schools and St. Joe’s! 🎉
But these coats are about so much more than keeping kids warm. They represent confidence, comfort, dignity, and the opportunity to show up ready to learn. Every child deserves to feel warm, cared for, and prepared to face the school day—regardless of their family’s financial circumstances.
Thanks to the generosity of our supporters, partners, and volunteers, Operation Warm is making a real difference in the lives of children right here in our community. đź’™
Together, we’re doing more than distributing coats. We’re building confidence, removing barriers, and helping Youngstown’s children thrive.
That’s the power of Rotary in action! 🙌
