First Things First, Kurt & Brenda, and Operation Food Search are calling on support from greater St. Louis for the 24th annual Warners' Warm-up Coat Drive with the donation of new and gently-used winter coats of all shapes and sizes for Bi-State residents in need. The two-week drive takes place from October 21-November 3 with more than 100 drop-off locations throughout the Bi-State. As always, Operation Food Search will get the coats to those who need them through their network of social service agencies and homeless shelters. Special thanks to our Warners’ Warm-up teammates: FedEx Office, LookAfter Hair Company, Lion's Choice, A-Mrazek Moving Systems, 5 On Your Side, participating police stations, and participating St. Louis area credit unions.

Seven Make-A-Wish & Dream Factory kids and their families joined the Warner family and First Things First for the annual weeklong trip to Florida. Three families from Arizona and four from Missouri spent the week with the Warner family as bonds were formed and friendships were made while exploring the best of Orlando including Animal Kingdom, Hollywood Studios, Magic Kingdom, and Andretti Indoor Karting. First Things First has now hosted a total of 179 Wish/Dream kids for this magical week! We are so grateful for the support of our amazing partners: Walt Disney World, Give Kids the World, Dream Factory, Make-A-Wish, and Geodis.
