All of these coats are given to students in Butts County Elementary schools. If you are willing to buy a new coat and drop it off at Jackson United Methodist Church located at 409 East Third Street. The drive will last November -January so as you are out Christmas shopping - think about making a difference in some child's life.

Let’s Wrap Mission is having a coat drive from now to February 28, 2022. We    purchase brand-new coats each year in order to continue this wonderful mission to help        children in need from Daughtry, Jackson and Stark Elementary, as well as McIntosh Trail Head Start, so that they may have a warm coat for the winter. Because of economic downturns, supply chain interruptions and dwindling Let’s Wrap funds, we are asking you to help by purchasing one new coat for a boy or girl - sizes toddler to 18 or adult sizes small to  XX large. Please leave the tags on. A bin is available in the gathering room for the new coats. Those not wanting to shop may instead make a monetary donation of your choice to JUMC and designate funds for Let’s Wrap. The coats collected will be added to our inventory and given out in next year’s Let’s Wrap program during October 2022. We are very grateful for our church’s support of this  valuable mission to help Butts County children in need. Contact Stephanie Owen or Pam  Stevenson with questions.
