I coordinate donations at the Sycamore Mosque in Cape Town. 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 kids' 3 to 5 and women's S-L. If you're in Cape Town, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Sycamore Mosque on Friday between 9am 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 Sycamore Mosque clothing bank, which is open to everyone. Thank you for reading my story.

  • Wishing you the best, Aisha. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Take care

    • good luck, Aisha. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't be hard on yourself for asking!

      • Sending good thoughts, Aisha. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Thinking of Cape Town

        • You're not alone, Aisha. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I'll check back for the next update. Love from Tamale

          • Thinking of you and your family, Aisha. I hope things turn around soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. God bless.
