I coordinate donations at Jacaranda Refugee Centre in Nagpur. 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 toddler through teen. If you're in Nagpur, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at Jacaranda Refugee Centre on Wednesday 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 Jacaranda Refugee Centre clothing bank, which is open to everyone.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
