Mission

Clothing Our Kids (COK) removes a major barrier to learning - the lack of essential school clothing for students from Head Start through High School.  By providing new clothing to children in need, COK helps boost self-esteem, reduce bullying, and improve attendance - giving every child a confident, equal start in their education.  

“When you create a difference in someone’s life, you not only impact their life, you impact everyone influenced by them throughout their entire lifetime. No act is ever too small. One by one, this is how to make an ocean rise.” – Poet Danielle Doby

As COK Founder Mary Rio recently said in an interview: “It’s not just new clothes, it’s a new life.”
