I coordinate donations at the Lotus Primary School in Niterói. 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 Niterói, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Lotus Primary School on Friday between 11am 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 Lotus Primary School clothing bank, which is open to everyone. Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

                              • Thinking of you and your family, Josiane. Your post was clear and honest. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Leicester
