Archbishop William E. Lori recently joined local members of the Knights of Columbus in distributing 1,000 new winter coats to Baltimore children in need.
Children from Loyola Early Learning Center, Ss. James and John Catholic School, Archbishop Borders School, and Our Lady of Victory Catholic School were among those visiting St. Ignatius Catholic Church in Baltimore to receive a new winter coat. The remaining coats will be sent to St. Agnes School, Catholic Charities of Baltimore and St. Gregory the Great Catholic Church in West Baltimore for distribution to children in need.
The new coats were donated by the Knights of Columbus as part of the Coats for Kids program.
