LEWISTON – It’s all about keeping everyone warm over the winter.

The Lewiston Rotary Coats for Families program has been collecting coats since October.

On Saturdays from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., anyone who needs a coat can go to the Lewiston Salvation Army.

"Anybody can show up and it doesn't matter if they have any money or don't have any money, it's all free," said Coats for Families Organizer Bev Endebrock. "There are also hats and gloves and mittens."

The distributions will take place for the next three Saturdays.

Endebrock said they have plenty of coats, but are always looking for more new and gently used jackets.

"Our boxes will be out at 17 different locations until the 18th of November," said Endebrock.
