MARY LOU'S COAT DRIVE
KEEPING KIDS WARM
DTC lost one of its most generous supporters, Mary Lou Fehrmann. Because of her kindness and generosity DTC has purchased 1000s of coats for children in the Merrimack Valley. In her memory, every year her son Fred Fehrmann and daughter in law Kim Clark have donated the funds again to keep Mary Lou's dream alive.
In 2020, Cafua Management LLC through Operation Warm donated an over 300 new coats to help children stay warm this winter.
