Mission News: Coats Collected

Busy Realtor Collects Coats for the Needy

For many of us, our closets are stuffed to overflowing with warm clothing for the cold winter months, but for Louisville's homeless population, a warm coat is a luxury that many do not enjoy.  Once again, Century 21 Joe Guy Hagan Realtor Wanda Cheek arrived at Wayside Christian Mission on Thanksgiving Day with over one hundred-fifty warm winter coats that were distributed among the needy who celebrated the holiday with us!  As homeless women and men selected coats from Wanda's inventory, the busy Realtor explained that many of the donated coats were brand new and had never been worn.  As children are also among Louisville's homeless population, Wanda had many smaller sizes on hand.  A legion of homeless people has Wanda Cheek to thank for the many warm coats that are being worn today--and we want to thank Wanda for standing with us as we battle the ills of homelessness in our community!
