Coats for Kids
Dec

Coats for Kids

The Princeton Club of Ausin has organized a time for us to volunteer in the city-wide effort to make sure every kid in Central Texas has a warm winter coat - Coats for Kids. To register, click here and then select the December 7th, 6-9pm shift to volunteer with your fellow Tigers.

Each year, more than 2,000 community volunteers participate in the acquisition, sorting, and distribution of coats. It is due to the valued support of local groups, businesses, schools, and individuals that Coats for Kids continues to thrive and serve the children and families of Central Texas each winter.

During the shift, we will use children's "wish list" (size and colors) to find a coat for them among the Coat for Kids racks. We then label the coat and pack it to be sent to the pick up location.
