I coordinate donations at the Lotus Community Church in Oakland. 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 Oakland, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Lotus Community Church on Sunday between 9am 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 the Lotus Community Church clothing bank, which is open to everyone.
I hope life is good to you.

Take care, Michael. Hope you get there. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Blessings.
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. After 8 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Good luck. Shared it with a few friends. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out.
take care, Michael. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Take care!
Hope this works out for you. My neighbor in Rome donated after I showed her your page. God bless
