I coordinate donations at the Union Family Centre in San Jose. 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 4-12. If you're in San Jose, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Union Family 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 the Union Family Centre clothing bank, which is open to everyone.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Best of luck. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
