62 pairs of children's shoes for Acacia Refugee Centre
A simple way to help: donate warm clothing for kids at Acacia Refugee Centre.
🇦🇺 Sydney, New South Wales, Australia539 views
I coordinate donations at Acacia Refugee Centre in Sydney. 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 2 to 14 years. If you're in Sydney, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at Acacia Refugee Centre on Thursday between 10am and 3pm.
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 Acacia Refugee Centre clothing bank, which is open to everyone.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Praying for you. Hope you get there. Love from Mangaluru.
hope it all works out, Jocelyn. Shared this with my family. It's not much but it's yours. All the best.
Hang in there. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. God bless.
You're not alone, Jocelyn. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Sydney.
I hope things turn around soon. Greetings from Karachi.
Sending strength, Jocelyn. Hope you get there. Love from Muzaffarpur

Looking forward to the next update. After 6 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless
Sending good thoughts, Jocelyn. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Thinking of Sydney.
Hang in there, Jocelyn. Shared it with a few friends. I have a 11 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Greetings from Ciudad de México.
