La Plata
I coordinate donations at the Union Community Church in La Plata. 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 La Plata, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Union Community Church on Friday between 10am 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 the Union Community Church clothing bank, which is open to everyone. You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

    Shared it with a few friends. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of La Plata

      So sorry you're going through this. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I'm in construction myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Love from Nîmes.
