Coats For Kids

About

The Salvation Army's Coats for Kids program provides coats and winter accessories to children in Milwaukee. All winter coats are donated and collected in collaboration with FOX6 News.

Coats are picked up at various drop-off sites throughout the city and are delivered to The Salvation Army where they are sorted by community volunteers and made ready for cleaning through the donated services of ITU.

Registration/Distribution

Coats will be distributed on a walk-in basis on Friday, October 25 from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. and on Saturday, October 26 from 9 a.m. until 1 p.m. at:

The Salvation Army Distribution Center

Milwaukee, WI

Each corps will have coats available after November 1 at each of their locations. Contact your local Salvation Army Corps Community center in your zip code. You can find that list here.
