Miners Take Kids Christmas Shopping
KENTUCKY....
Well, it wasn't Shop With a Cop, but maybe Shop With a Miner, that put smiles on some faces of kids in eastern Kentucky Thursday. Friends of Coal, Coal Mining Our Future and Coal for Kids collectively contributed the $10,000 spent when miners took 100 kids from Perry, Knott, and Leslie county schools to Magic Mart in Hazard to shop for whatever would make their Christmas a merry season. For some, it made the difference in what Santa would leave under their tree.
