In 2018, I shared a story of one winter night when Louie Jr. came home and woke me up all excited to tell me of his night’s events. He said “Dad don’t get mad at me; but, I gave my new coat to a homeless guy outside of the Auburn tonight. It was freezing out and I saw him with no coat on, so I gave him my coat.” I replied, “Louie, I’m so proud of you ” In staying with how many times both my boys, Chris and Louie, did so many wonderful and spontaneous acts of kindness, Peace Together Project donated winter knit hats and gloves to the Homeless coalition survival kits for the winter… With temperatures falling below zero, please consider providing wish for W.A.R.M. items and support to homeless shelters and missions…

That story and homeless survival kit donations provided the inspiration to start Wish for W.A.R.M. – Warm Apparel Relief Movement
