WHAT’S NEW:
ONE WARM COAT GONE GOOD
Beth Amodio is President/CEO of One Warm Coat, the organization on a mission to provide free coats to children and adults in need while promoting volunteerism and environmental sustainability. One Warm Coat is all about community: they create awareness of the vital need, this awareness brings volunteers, coat donations and monetary donations, they then pass the donations to nonprofit partners across the United States who serve communities in need. Every year, this incredible platform helps deliver over half a million jackets and coats right into the hands of people who need them most. We talk the good of coat drives, how if we see it we can make it so, and yes, Wheel of Fortune. Yep. You read that right. Come on now, admit it, you’ve got a coat or two in your own closet you haven’t worn in how long now? Are you ready to pay it forward and make someone in your own community a little warmer, a little safer today?
Steve is busy at work on the third book in his cozy mystery series,
THE DOG WALKING DETECTIVES.

Did you catch last week’s episode?
Maya Brattkus wanted to give her friend who lost her home in the LA fires a gift to comfort her and help her through her grief. What she didn’t realize is that her art would touch so many people in need as well. So she started drawing the houses and businesses that were lost in the Eaton and Palisades fires to raise awareness and support for strangers she had never met, ones who had lost so much. And that’s how her Lost Home Project began. And it’s still going. Maya’s goal is to collect as many drawings of these houses, along with the stories behind them, to compile into a book to pay tribute to her community. They say art heals people. Sometimes an artist realizes it can heal themself. This is Maya’s good journey…
