As the weather gets colder and children return to school, the need for warm water-proof coats grows. Mercy Ambulance needs the community’s help again with donations for its “Warm a Child with Love” coat drive. Donors can drop off new and gently used coats at 5114 Bullion Street in Mariposa. Scarves and mittens are also appreciated, but organizers ask that no sweaters or vests be donated. For information, contact Pauline at 966- 4294.
