About
The Junior League of Austin (JLA) will hold the 36th annual Coats for Kids Distribution Dec. 1–10, 2022. Together, with our long-standing partners—Jack Brown Cleaners, iHeartRadio, and KVUE—The Junior League of Austin aims to provide 30,000 warm winter coats to Central Texas children in need.
The Junior League of Austin, its partners, and the community at large have an impressive and beautiful history of bringing warmth to the children and families in our community.
Coats for Kids is a success due to the tremendous support received by the community year after year. Approximately 2,000 volunteers work together to sort, organize, and shop the thousands of winter coats donated for distribution.
We hope you are able to attend and find volunteering just as fulfilling, knowing your time is critical to our ultimate goal of keeping Central Texas children warm this winter.
