Student leadership team collects coats and cash donations
The Career and Technical Student Organization Leadership Team at TEC sponsored a Coats for Kids Drive through Dec. 16, 2008. TEC students donated 289 like new coats, as well as $1,171.70 which purchased 66 brand new coats. The new coats were purchased at Sears in Fort Gratiot. The folks at Sears were wonderful to work with and offered an incredible discount. The coats were picked up by representatives of the EOC for distribution.The leadership team preceded the coat drive with another charitable campaign, for which it collected about 500 to 600 pounds of food donations for the Salvation Army, according to Craig Richards, TEC's School-to-Work Coordinator. "Students and staff get very involved in charity efforts over the holidays", Richards said. There are often contests to see which program accumulates the most donations, but the spirit of giving is what really drives everyone.
