Kat 103.7 Launches First Annual Gloves and Socks Drive to Support Local Children
As the winter season approaches, Kat 103.7 is spearheading a community initiative designed to provide warmth and comfort to local children in need. The station has announced the launch of its First Annual Wrapped in Care Gloves and Socks Drive, in collaboration with the nonprofit organization Completely KIDS. The campaign is proudly presented by Corwin Toyota of Bellevue.
The objective of the drive is to collect 500 sets of gloves and socks, which will directly benefit children aged 4 to 14. These essential items will be distributed to underserved youth in the Omaha community, with sizes ranging from Children’s XS to Adult Large. The initiative aims to keep local children warm during the colder months, addressing a critical need as temperatures drop.
Community involvement is a cornerstone of this campaign, and Kat 103.7 has provided several ways for individuals and businesses to contribute.
One method is through the convenient online shopping option via the Amazon Wish List, where donors can purchase items from the comfort of their homes. Alternatively, those wishing to shop locally can mail their donations to Kat 103.7’s studios at:
Kat 103.7 Studios
CC: Completely KIDS Socks & Gloves Drive
5010 Underwood Avenue
Omaha, NE 68132
In addition, residents near Bellevue can drop off their contributions at Corwin Toyota of Bellevue during normal business hours. To ensure that all donations are distributed in a timely manner, participants are encouraged to make their contributions by Valentine’s Day.
The gloves and socks collected will be distributed by Completely KIDS, an organization dedicated to helping families break the cycle of poverty. By collaborating with schools, shelters, and community partners, Completely KIDS serves over 2,900 children and their families, aiming to remove barriers to success and facilitate brighter futures.
This season of giving offers an opportunity for the Omaha community to join forces in a collective effort to support its youngest members. As the cold weather settles in, Kat 103.7 invites everyone to contribute and make a positive impact—one pair of gloves and socks at a time. The solidarity shown in this initiative underscores the importance of community care and compassion during the winter months.
For further information about participating in the Gloves and Socks Drive, residents can visit Kat 103.7’s website or reach out directly to the station for guidance on how to contribute.
