I coordinate donations at the Cedar Community Church in Chicago. 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 Chicago, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Cedar Community Church on Wednesday between 10am and 2pm.
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 Cedar Community Church clothing bank, which is open to everyone.
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

Keep going. Shared it with a few friends. Put this on a community board in San Jose this morning. God bless.
Best of luck, Derek. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best
Sending good thoughts, Derek. Looking forward to the next update. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Thinking of Chicago.
