Last winter, when the huge snowstorm was predicted, I cleaned out my kids outgrown snow pants and coats and brought them to their school (after calling first). I dropped them in the office and the guidance counselors discreetly sent them home with kids who needed them. If you can't find a coat drive, try calling the school to see if they know any kids who need coats.
I do second the church suggestion. My church keeps clothes on hand to give to people as needed. You'd be surprised how many people walk in to churches and ask for help.
