About

About Operation Warm Operation Warm is a national nonprofit dedicated to manufacturing brand-new, high-quality coats, shoes, and other essentials for children in need. We partner with compassionate individuals, community organizations, schools, churches and corporations to deliver more than just clothing—we provide emotional warmth, confidence, and hope for a brighter future. Through programs that meet basic needs and connect under-resourced children to vital community resources, we help kids thrive. For over 26 years, these gifts have served as a bridge between families in need and partners offering access to critical support. When children no longer have to worry about the essentials, they can attend school safely, focus on learning, and experience the full benefits of education. They can play, socialize, and reach key developmental milestones. They gain confidence in themselves and their communities—and begin to believe in a better tomorrow. At Operation Warm, we’ve seen firsthand that the gift of clothing essentials can change lives—not just for a day or a season, but often for a lifetime. Operation Warm partners with organizations dedicated to supporting vulnerable families across North America.
