READING, Pa. – 69 WFMZ-TV is partnering once again with the Reading Royals to hold a coat drive for new and gently used coats to be donated to the Reading School District’s Knights’ Closet, which was founded to help students in need, particularly those experiencing homelessness or who are at risk.

This collaboration is a powerful reminder of the impact we can make when we come together to care for one another. Thank you for helping us keep our Reading students warm and supported this winter season,” Emily added.
