She’s outdone herself and we’re so very grateful to be the recipients of her selfless generosity!
This fall and early winter, Beachwood student Lena Leland coordinated her own coat drive and collected more than 350 coats for us — far exceeding the more than 100 coats she gathered last year.
Thank you so much, Lena. We appreciate so much the individual and group efforts and support of Northeast Ohioans. Our annual campaign would not be as successful without their help.
A generous donation from The Figgie Foundation and Clark-Reliance Corporation will make this winter much warmer for the several hundred children who attend Harrison Elementary School in Lakewood.
The school coat distribution in early November was sponsored by The Figgie Foundation and Clark-Reliance Corporation. Local employees of Altar’d State and iHeartMedia Cleveland, along with Coats for Kids representatives, were at the school for a two-day coat distribution that resulted in every student at the school receiving a brand new, warm winter coat.
Coats for Kids worked with The Figgie Foundation and Clark-Reliance to identify a school in Lakewood where the majority of children are economically disadvantaged. The companies chose Lakewood to honor the Figgie family legacy. The late Matthew Figgie often reminisced about his childhood in Lakewood and remembered his dear parents, both of whom were Lakewood High School alumni.

Coats for Kids extends its deepest heartfelt sympathy to the family and friends of Matthew P. Figgie, who passed away Aug. 25, 2018.
Matthew’s generosity and willingness to always give back and do for others will never be forgotten.
Matthew was Founder, Chairman and CEO of Figgie Capital, Chairman of Clark-Reliance Corporation, Chairman of The Figgie Foundation and Chairman of Fairmount Center of the Arts.
Matthew was not only a proud father, respected businessman and advocate of the arts, but also a devoted community crusader.
The Figgie Foundation supports and contributes to local organizations each year. For the past several years, The Figgie Foundation has been Coats for Kids’ largest contributor.
Thank you, Matthew, for caring so much about, and doing so much for, the children of northeast Ohio and so many others.
Rest in peace, dear friend.
