Shasta County Department of Child Support Services is preparing local children for winter weather by hosting a Winter Coat Event on Saturday, November 15, 2025. Families are invited to participate in a drive-thru event where children can receive new winter coats to prepare for the upcoming cold temperatures. Each child will receive one winter coat while supplies last and children must be present.
Shasta County Department of Child Support Services is seeking the public’s assistance to give the gift of warmth to local children with donations of new coats of all styles and sizes, and/or monetary donations. Last year, thanks to the generosity of the community, Child Support Services and our partners successfully distributed coats to 293 children. The department is excited to try and increase the amount this year. This initiative aligns with Child Support Services’ mission statement, “Empowering families by discovering their needs, providing education, and collaborating with partners to bridge the gap to available resources for the wellbeing of children.”
Donations can be dropped off at the Child Support Services office located at 2600 Park Marina Drive, Redding, CA 96001, and at several partner locations detailed below. Some pick-ups may be arranged by contacting (530) 229-8707.
