FREQUENTLY ASKED
QUESTIONS
Do you only accept new coats?
Yes. Coats for Kids Ride is committed to providing NEW coats, (with a tag), to kids who need them. Many families in need do not have the resources to provide items that are easily taken for granted such as even having a coat. So, imagine the joy of getting something brand new versus being handed down.
What does C4KR do with all the Coats that are donated?
Each year, C4KR works with counselors in the Denton County School district and other organizations to assess local needs. On the day following the ride, C4KR delivers all the coats that were collected to a central location where school counselors and liaisons sort them by age, size and gender. Counselors then take the coats back to their respective schools and distribute them to kids who need them.
Do I have to ride a motorcycle to participate?
Not at all. While the ride between CH Collins Athletic Complex and American Eagle Harley-Davidson is specifically designed for motorcycles, you can still participate! Come join in on the fun of watching the bikes roll in and out of CH Collins and then make your way over to American Eagle Harley-Davidson to watch the parade of bikes, escorted by area law enforcement arrive. There you can join in on more of the fun as together we celebrate a very meaningful day of giving to our community.
What happens if on the day of the ride there is inclement weather?
If inclement weather is forecasted or occurs on the day of the ride, it will be important to check our Facebook page and/or website for up-to-date information. But while harsh weather can potentially effect the ride portion of the day’s activities, the event at American Eagle Harley-Davidson will still be held. There are lots of kids who still need your coat donation so don’t let the weather discourage you from attending.
How else can I help support Coats for Kids Ride?
Of course, we would love to see you at the ride event but there are a number of other ways you can help:
- Drop NEW Coats at one of our drop-off locations anytime on or before the actual event.
- Donate to our organization and we’ll buy a NEW coat for you.
- Check out our volunteer page for ways you can get involved in C4KR.
- Start a coat drive at your workplace, church or neighborhood and bring them to the event.
- Encourage your company to become a sponsor for C4KR
