Eldoret
I coordinate donations at Union Refugee Centre in Eldoret. Every year around this time we hear from families who have nothing warm for their children, and this year demand has more than doubled. We're collecting clean, gently used or new coats, boots, hats, gloves and scarves in sizes kids' 3 to 5 and women's S-L. If you're in Eldoret, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at Union Refugee Centre on Monday between 9am and 4pm. If you're elsewhere, you may offer to sponsor a coat through a local shop - message in the comments and we can coordinate. Items go to families directly and the rest to the Union Refugee Centre clothing bank, which is open to everyone. Thanks for being kind about this.
