FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
CISNT Trades Coats for Pizzas!
Lewisville , TX – November 6, 2006: - Communities In Schools of North Texas (CISNT) has teamed up with Capital One Bank, Papa Murphy’s Pizza, and Evergreen at Lewisville for a fun and tasty Coat Drive that will benefit the children served by CISNT. As the weather turns cooler, it is important that every child have a warm coat to wear this winter to stay healthy and stay in school. Anyone bringing a new or gently used coat donation to a Capital One Bank location through November 18th will receive a “Have One on Us” free pizza coupon from Papa Murphy’s Pizza. Donated coats will be delivered to the staff and residents at Evergreen at Lewisville (an Active Seniors Community) who are donating their time and energy to sort and organize the donations to be distributed to children served by CISNT across north Texas.
