“Thanks to our collective efforts and community-based partnerships, hundreds of children will have a new winter coat,” Singleton said. “It is vitally important that we do all that we can to ensure that children in Burlington County have the tools they need to succeed and thrive, and that includes having a coat that will keep them warm on their way to school.”
