BOULDER, Colo. (Oct. 1, 2026) — Cozy Coats for Kids® is halfway through its Annual Coat Program, with orders now being prepared and shipped. All coats are scheduled to be delivered to families by the end of October, reaching communities across several states through partnerships with nonprofit organizations, shelters, schools, and other organizations serving families in need.

Each child receives a brand-new winter coat in their favorite color and preferred style. CCFK partners collect each child’s preferences and submit their orders to CCFK, where every coat is hand-picked specifically for that child. This personalized approach helps ensure each child receives something warm that was chosen just for them. 

Partners receiving free brand-new winter coats through the 2026 Program include:

  • Aurora Community Church of the Nazarene in Shoreline, Wash.,
  • Adkins Home Inspections in Berea, Ky.,
  • Owatonna Public Schools in Owatonna, Minn.,
  • The Arc Jefferson-St. Lawrence in Watertown, N.Y.,
  • Evergreen Property Inspectors in St. Louis, Mo.,
  • Mission Sheds in Hot Springs, N.C.,
  • PG Home Inspections in South River, N.J.,
  • Kabod House International in Flossmoor, Ill.,
  • Buladean Community Foundation in Bakersville, N.C.,
  • Interdisciplinary Child Advocacy Clinic in Philadelphia, Pa.,
  • North Florida Inspections Solutions in Lawtey, Fla.,
  • Nana’s House in Temple Hills, Md.

(The identity of some program partners must remain confidential due to the work of the social service agencies and the communities they serve.)

CCFK is run entirely by volunteers, allowing 100% of donations to go directly toward purchasing new coats for children. All coats are delivered entirely cost-free to partners and children.
