Coats for Kids

Good used coats are provided for New River Valley students whose families are card members at the Clothing Bank. They are collected throughout the year and cleaned by Cooks Clean Center during July (Thank you, Cooks Clean Center!) and distributed in the fall.

If you have outgrown coats (especially ones suitable for school-age children or teens), we'd love to have them for our kids. Please drop them at the Clothing Bank.

Who is eligible for free coats?
New River Valley School-age students (K-12) whose families are card members at the Radford Clothing Bank.
