For ASM Global & The Legends Way Month of Giving, the hosted our first-ever coat drive! Thanks to your generosity, we gathered enough coats to support individuals and families in need this winter. 🧥✨
Children's coats were donated to Hope Rising, and adult coats went to Threads of Miami Valley which, paired with other community donations, enabled them to increase their coat distribution limit for the winter. ❤️
A heartfelt thank you to our incredible local community for your support and contributions. Together, we’re making a difference, and this is only the beginning. Stay tuned as we continue building this initiative year after year. 🌟
