St. Edmond donates $6,000 to Clothing Our Kids
St. Edmond Roman Catholic Church in Rehoboth Beach recently donated $6,000 to Clothing Our Kids to support local schoolchildren in need.
“We see the tremendous need but don’t have the capacity to do what Clothing Our Kids does to meet that need,” said Father William Cocco, St. Edmond pastor. “Hence, the pastoral council voted to provide these funds in support of COK’s mission to improve the lives of at-risk schoolchildren in Sussex County by providing them with appropriate school clothing.”
On behalf of those children, Clothing Our Kids is grateful for the continuing generosity of everyone at St. Edmond, especially as the organization expands into middle schools, in addition to the Head Start Programs and elementary schools already served.
“It’s not just new clothes; it’s a new life,” said Mary Rio, Clothing Our Kids founder. To learn more, donate or volunteer, go to clothingourkids.org.
