Coats for Kids

Thank You for Keeping Our Community Warm!

For more than 30 years, Coats for Kids has brought our community together to help local children stay warm through the long Minnesota winters. The Brainerd YMCA and our community partners are deeply grateful for the generosity shown during this year’s program.

Because of your donations, hundreds of children received winter coats, boots, snow pants, hats, mittens, and scarves — all at no cost to their families. Together, we helped ensure that every child could head into winter feeling warm, safe, and cared for.

 

Thank You to Our 2025 Sponsors and Partners
We couldn’t do this without the incredible support of our community:

  • Anderson Cleaners

  • Hubbard Radio

  • Westgate Mall

  • The Pulse 104.3

  • Knights of Columbus

 

Looking Ahead to 2026

Plans are already in the works for next year’s Coats for Kids program! Stay tuned for details on donation drop-off locations, volunteer opportunities, and distribution day information in 2026.

Your continued kindness keeps this tradition alive — thank you for helping make a difference, one warm coat at a time.
