"Let the person with two coats give to him who has none"

If people don't have a coat, it's their own darn fault.  They need to get a job and earn their own coat.

Funding for coats is being cut.

You can maybe get a grant for a coat. Please limit your answers to 250 characters in length.

Describe the anticipated impact of this coat grant. How will these impacts be measured?

Describe how you will inform the community of the coat grant. Is there a media plan in place for this program?

Limit one coat per household.

How will the coat be used? 

This community is determined to eliminate the need for coat-sharing in the next 10 years. We want to end coat-lessness, not manage it.  How will this grant for coats end the need for coat-sharing in the future?

Sigh.
