One Warm Coat's mission is to provide free coats to children and adults in need while promoting volunteerism and environmental sustainability.

Founded in 1992 by one woman with one coat to give, One Warm Coat is a national nonprofit organization that originated with one simple act of kindness. With a deep-seated belief in the power of collective action, One Warm Coat engages and supports thousands of volunteers each year to collect coats, sharing warmth with half a million people in need in communities nationwide. Over the past 33 years, One Warm Coat has distributed nearly 9 million coats through a network of 1,500+ local nonprofit partners, keeping more than 22 million pounds of textiles out of landfills.
