Chicago is bracing for the cold months ahead with the help of the Chicago Housing Authority.
More than 5,000 families currently living in public housing received coats Saturday from Operation Warm at the UIC forum.
They supply you with coats, they give you books, they give you like gloves, light bulbs," said Anita Lewis, a mother of 12. "Basically they help you with everything." This is right on time at the top of the fall.
Operation Warm has provided more than 110,000 coats to roughly 30,000 families over the past 15 years.
