Coats for Kids Logo with Sponsors

 

Coats for Kids is a success due to the tremendous support received by the community year after year. Approximately 2,000 volunteers work together to sort, organize, and shop the thousands of winter coats donated for distribution.

We hope you are able to attend and find volunteering just as fulfilling, knowing your time is critical to our ultimate goal of keeping Central Texas children warm this winter.
