Warm a Child for Winter
Warm A Child For Winter provides coats, hats, scarves, gloves, books, and more to children in the Great Lakes Bay Region. Over 6,500 children have received donations since November of 2014. Our goal for 2025 is to distribute outerwear to 800 children in need. To stretch every dollar, we shop for coats year-round, always on the lookout for the best deals to maximize our impact.

The Mother You Know
“The Mother You Know” is an essay contest sponsored by Women of Colors in collaboration with Evelyn McGovern. We invite members of the community to submit brief essays describing “The Mother You Know”—whether that be your biological mother, adoptive mother, church mother, school mother, neighborhood mother, work mother, or some other type of mother—and the effect she has had on your life. Prizes will be awarded for the top entries in eight categories. For submission requirements and information about the contest deadline, please contact President Evelyn McGovern at ewmtoday@aol.com.
