Warm Up KC: Providing Essentials for Families
Donation protected
UPDATE: We have received requests to help students in the NKC and KCPS districts. Any new donations will be put toward purchasing more coats, socks, hats, etc. to help houseless students within the districts.
We have received non stop request to assist children and the houseless with essentials for the winter. Warm Up KC will now collect donations year round to continue the mission of providing people in need with warm clothes, coats, and more!
Warm Up KC was started in 2017. Our mission is to provide families in need with coats, clothes, shoes, hygiene products, and more! The economy can be hard on working families, we help provide a remedy. We have helped nearly 2,000 people and are excited to keep this tradition going! Whether you're a working mom, a single dad, or a part of the houseless community, all are welcome, this is a judgment-free event!
We are raising capital to purchase the following for this year's event.
- Clothing racks & Hangers
- Art supplies, and a bounce house (keeps children busy while parents shop)
- Hot chocolate station (cups, hot chocolate)
- Shopping bags
- Infant/baby clothing (We are always short on donations for infants)
- Hygiene products (Sanitary napkins, toothpaste, shaving cream, razors, etc)
