Westlake Vilage, CA – Lydia Gable of Keller Williams Realty and Rick Winters of Winters Financial Group will host their 5th Annual Coats-for-Casa Pacifica charity event at Three Springs Park in Westlake Village, on Saturday, January 10th from 10:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m.

With a huge truck load of snow delivered for the day, the event is a great opportunity to bring the whole family for complimentary snow play and sledding, coffee and smoothies, and winter crafts. All Lydia Gable and Rick Winters ask is that you don’t forget to bring new or gently used winter clothes of all sizes, including coats, sweaters, hoodies, mittens/gloves, winter hats and scarves, to benefit Casa Pacifica in Camarillo – a facility that provides emergency shelter, medical assessment and treatment, and a host of other services to children removed from their homes for abuse and neglect. The agency also provides community-based interventions for children and families in need. Visit http://casapacifica.org/ to learn more about Casa Pacifica’s 17 therapeutic programs. Last year, over 1,400 winter articles of clothing were donated – coats, sweaters, hats, gloves, and scarves.

“Casa Pacifica expects to care for and help more than 4,000 children this year, and struggling families,” say Lydia and Rick. “Your coat donation will help Casa Pacifica provide these children and their families a warm, basic necessity for the cold winter months ahead.”

If you are unable to share in the Winter Coat Drive fun but would like to donate, please contact Lydia or Rick to make other arrangements.

Casa Pacifica is a crisis-care and residential treatment facility for abused, neglected, or at-risk children in Ventura and Santa Barbara Counties.
