Tinsel Korey and the ‘1 Warm Kid’ Coat Campaign

Tinsel has been very active with this campaign. She has sent several tweets regarding her involvement!

Tinsel Korey, who plays the beloved “Emily” in The Twilight Saga movies New Moon, Eclipse and the upcoming Breaking Dawn, is using her newfound popularity to make a difference in the lives of children nationwide.
The first annual “1 Warm Kid” campaign is a coat drive spearheaded by partners P.S. from Aéropostale (the children’s line) and the nonprofit organization One Warm Coat. The campaign runs through October 31, 2010, and P.S. from Aéropostale will match every donated coat, up to 100,000.
Several celebrities, including Tinsel Kory, are supporting the cause by donating signed coats in order to encourage participation. Those who provide donations will have the chance to win the celebrities coats, provided by Tinsel Korey, Ellen DeGeneres, Courteney Cox and David Arquette, Ricky Schroder, Cole and Dylan Sprouse (“Suite Life on Deck”), Debby Ryan (“Suite Life on Deck”), Jennette McCurdy (“iCarly”), and David Del Rio (“The Troop”), among others.
“1 in 5 kids live in poverty. It’s startling to learn of how many families struggle to have the basic necessities, such as a coat,” said Scott Birnbaum, Senior Vice President of Marketing of Aéropostale, Inc.  “1 Warm Kid will provide warmth to many families this winter and shed light on this growing epidemic.”
Aside from the opportunity to win a signed coat, donors will also receive 25% off their next purchase from P.S. from Aéropostale.
Support Tinsel Korey and the 1 Warm Kid campaign by donating a coat now through October 31 to help children in need of warmth this winter. For more information and to get involved in the campaign, visit www.ps4u.com or www.onewarmkid.com.
