The children in the Wapakoneta Family YMCA Kids Express after school program showed just how much they care about others by donating coloring books and crayons to help the cause of a Bath High School student on Wednesday at the Wapakoneta Family YMCA.

Logan Stratton of Bath was born with a heart problem and spent a lot of time in the hospital as a child, said Stratton’s mother Kris Stratton. He decided that he wanted to help other children with health problems by collecting coloring books and crayons and then giving them to children in different hospitals.

Connie Krites, a counselor for the Kids Express program at the Wapakoneta Family YMCA, said the children in the after school program have been collecting coloring supplies for about two weeks. The children donated three boxes of coloring books and supplies to Stratton’s cause.
