Jenkinjones is an unincorporated community and coal town in McDowell County WV. During the years of 1961-1975 it is documented that 8,290,780 tons of coal were mined by the Pocahontas Fuel Co. Because of OSHA regulations, mines in this area were closed causing it to become the poorest county in WV. It is the 6th poorest county in the US with a average household income of $24,707. As if that weren'

t bad enough, Walmart just announced they were closing the only Walmart store in the county, the only one in WV..causing even more unemployment and more poverty to McDowell County's people. Unfortunately most people who live here are stuck. They were born here, raised here and have no where else to go. They need your help to get on their feet and help provide during these hard economic times. There are programs that the Kings Closet provides at Back to School, and Christmas. This page focuses on the Easter program.
