For several years, Cape Fox Corporation (CFC) has partnered with the City of Saxman in an exceptional effort to assist the families of Saxman, Alaska, through the charity Coats for Kids of Saxman. The mission of this charitable effort is to ensure all the children of Saxman have a warm coat this winter. Each child will be given a brand-new coat purchased from donations from Cape Fox Corporation.
This year’s Coats for Kids endeavor was a tremendous success. CFC and the City of Saxman ordered an incredible $5,084 worth of coats for the children of Saxman, each costing less than $50. This means that 59 warm coats were provided to the youth of Saxman, Alaska. Applications for coats were due by December 18th from the families in the city. The Coats for Kids of Saxman program, not affiliated with any other national program, is for all children who are 18 years and younger and who are in school. For children who are younger than four and not in school, parents could make special requests, and the program would make every effort to find them a coat for this winter as well.
Cape Fox Corporation has collaborated with the City of Saxman in the Coats for Kids program for several years, believing that “no children in Saxman should go without having a warm coat in winter.” Everyone at Cape Fox Corporation and the City of Saxman is proud of the time, money, and effort donated to this event. Ginger McCormick, City Clerk for the City of Saxman, commented:
“This initiative would not have been possible without your dedication and belief in the importance of supporting our community’s children. Your commitment to helping us keep these young hearts warm has made a profound impact, and we are truly inspired by your generosity.
The smiles and joy these coats bring to the children of Saxman are a direct reflection of the care and compassion you’ve shown. Together, we’ve not only provided warmth but also demonstrated what the power of community can achieve.
Thank you again for standing with us and for being such an integral part of this meaningful project. We look forward to continuing our partnership and making an even greater difference together in the future.”
CFC delights in supporting our community in this effort each year and working in cooperation with the City of Saxman. We hope other organizations will join us in helping the Saxman children.
