🧥❄️ WILSON WARRIORS, LET’S SPREAD SOME WARMTH! ❄️❤️ As the temperatures begin to drop, we want to make sure every Warrior stays warm and cozy this winter! 💙 Wilson Elementary is hosting a Winter Coat Drive, and we are asking our wonderful Warrior families and community to help us make a difference! We are collecting NEW or GENTLY USED (clean and washed) heavy winter coats for our Pre-K through 5th grade students. Have a coat your child has outgrown? Consider donating it to help keep another little Warrior warm! Every donation, big or small, can make a meaningful difference in the life of a child. ❤️ 📅 Donation Dates: November 4, 2026 – December 17, 2027 📍 Drop-Off Location: Wilson Elementary 1200 W. Hackberry Ave., McAllen, TX 📧 Questions or More Information: jacquelyn.juan@mcallenisd.net Let’s come together as a community and show our Warriors that they are cared for and supported. Sometimes the smallest act of kindness can make the biggest difference! Thank you for helping us spread warmth, kindness, and Warrior pride! 💛❤️ #WilsonWarriors #WilsonCares #WinterCoatDrive #WarriorKindness
