FRANKFORT, Ky. (WTVQ) — The Kentucky Association of School Administrators is hosting a winter coat drive for victims of the July flooding in Eastern Kentucky.

KASA said as many people are still displaced, ensuring students and staff stay warm will help ease one more burden.

The coat drive is launched to provide new coats for the holidays to children and staff in 30 schools from Letcher, Knott, Perry, Breathitt and Floyd counties and the Hazard and Jackson Independent school communities.

The goal is to raise enough money to purchase coats for staff members, preschool and elementary students, hoodies for middle and high school students, and hats and gloves for everyone.

There are several ways to donate:

PayPal: ekycoatdrive@kasa.org
