Warm a child for winter
Every child deserves to feel safe, warm, and cared for—especially during Michigan’s cold winter months. Yet for many families in Saginaw County, that warmth is out of reach.
- In Saginaw County, over 33% of residents and more than 53% of children under 18 live in poverty.
- Since the pandemic, the need for warmth has only grown. Every year, our contact-free drive-thru coat drive ensures children and families receive the winter outerwear and household essentials they desperately need. Last year alone, in just three hours, Warm A Child For Winter provided winter wear and supplies to over 700 children and families.
- To make every dollar count, we purchase coats year-round, seeking the most affordable, high-quality options to keep kids warm.
Warm A Child For Winter is powered by community love and collective action— brought to life by Women of Colors alongside generous supporters like the Saginaw Police Department, Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc., Saginaw Valley State University, Holy Family Catholic Church, Saginaw Public Schools, Financial Plus Bank, and many others.
