Logan County Family Children First Council Launches Toasty Tots Program for Winter 2024
​As winter approaches, Logan County Family Children First Council (FCFC) is gearing up to help local families keep their little ones warm. The FCFC is once again offering its Toasty Tots program, which provides free winter coats for Logan County children from birth through pre-K.
 
Families who would like to receive a coat can visit the FCFC website at http://www.logancofcfc.org and fill out a referral form under the Toasty Tots section. After the form is submitted, an FCFC representative will contact the family to arrange pick-up.
 
Coats are distributed based on availability, and while FCFC strives to accommodate everyone, they cannot guarantee every size will be available due to limited inventory. Families are encouraged to apply early to improve their chances of securing a coat.
 
The Toasty Tots program reflects Logan County’s ongoing commitment to supporting its families and ensuring that no child is left in the cold this winter.
 
For more information and to apply, visit www.logancofcfc.org.
