TEXARKANA, Texas, Oct. 25, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- In partnership with The Knights of Columbus, fourteen East Texas Check `n Go locations are collecting new coats for needy children and families through the Coats For Kids program.

The East Texas Knights of Columbus have been collecting coats during the fall months for three consecutive years, and 2018 marks the first year of the partnership with Check `n Go.
