I coordinate donations at Sycamore Refugee Centre in Petr贸polis. 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 Petr贸polis, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at Sycamore Refugee Centre on Friday 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 Sycamore Refugee Centre clothing bank, which is open to everyone.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
