Warm Up KC will now collecting donations year round to continue the mission of providing people in need with warm clothes, coats, and other essentials!
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 more than 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.
- Art supplies, and a bounce house (keeps children busy while parents shop)
- Hot chocolate station (cups, lids, hot chocolate)
- Shopping bags
- Infant/baby clothing (We are always short on donations for infants)
- Hygiene products (Sanitary napkins, toothpaste, shaving cream, razors, etc.)
