Donate Winter Wear

Kids rely on your donation of new and gently used coats, snow pants, boots, and water-resistant gloves to help them stay warm and active this winter. All sizes needed from newborn through adult (for teens).

​

We have many drop off locations in Pierce & St. Croix counties. Most collection sites are on hold with COVID-19 precautions. Please request a front door pick-up through our contact page, facebook page, info@basicsforlocalkids.org, or 715-821-1623. Please avoid donating items that are in rough shape, have tears or stains.
