Who We Are
We provide the gift of warmth, confidence, and hope through donations of clothing to children living in great need. These humanitarian donations relieve human suffering by providing basic need clothing essentials— principally winter coats, athletic shoes, and sports bras — to children in need across the United States.
Our Guiding Principles
Warmth
Warmth begins with protection and comfort. Brand-new essential apparel helps children focus on learning, playing, and simply being kids instead of worrying about the challenges that come with going without. When basic needs are met, children can engage more fully in the moments that matter.
Confidence
Brand-new essential apparel provides more than comfort. It creates opportunities for children to participate, feel included, and engage fully in school, activities, and daily life. When kids have what they need to show up comfortably and confidently, participation grows into self-assurance
Hope
When barriers are removed, new possibilities emerge. Access to essential apparel helps children move through their day with greater comfort and confidence, opening the door to opportunities at school, in activities, and in their communities.
Who We Serve
Operation Warm provides brand-new essential apparel to the children who need them most. We serve Title 1 schools and school districts, Head Start programs, homeless shelters, and other beneficiary organizations with urgent need.
