Start a Coat Drive

Is your school or organization looking to make a difference in your community? Start a coat drive!

We are looking for adult and children size warm winter coats. Each year we aim to collect 50,000 warm winter coats to provide to individuals and families in need. Coats are cleaned by Anton’s Cleaners and made available to a network of over 90 distribution partners made up of local nonprofits, social service agencies, and schools to ensure the coats are given to those who really need them free of charge.

It’s easy to get started!

Select your drive date(s) and location. A drive can last a day, a week, a month, or the entirety of our coat drive (October 7, 2024-January 5, 2025). Pick a length of time within the official Coats for Kids & Families collection dates that work for you and your community.
Register your drive. We want to be able to assist you with your collection drive. Register through the form below!
Spread the word! Tell your community about your coat with Coats for Kids! Check out our promotional materials and edit your own flyer!
