House of Ruth Inc. 

It’s almost time for The House of Ruth Inc. and its community partners’ 5th Annual 2025 New Winter Coat Drive for Kids! This year's New Winter Coat Drive runs October 4th-November 14th. 

We invite everyone to join us in helping families keep their children warm this winter right here in our local schools.

We’re proud to share that since our first Winter Coat Drive in October 2021, together, we’ve donated 850 brand-new coats, hats, and gloves to students in USD 475 schools. Thank you to everyone in the Junction City community for your generous support over the past four years!

A special thank you goes out to our 2025 community partners who are joining us again this year. We appreciate your continued support in making this event a success.

Lastly, thank you in advance to the JC Post and the Junction City community for supporting The House of Ruth Inc. and our community partners in this 5th Annual New Winter Coat Drive for Kids. Your support means everything!
