I coordinate donations at the Acacia Community Church in Jessore. 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 Jessore, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Acacia Community Church on Wednesday 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 Acacia Community Church clothing bank, which is open to everyone.
Thank you for reading my story.

Sending love. Shared it with a few friends. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Lucknow.
Your post was clear and honest. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Greetings from Auckland
Praying for you. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. After 8 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from Mekelle
Take care, Babu. Looking forward to the next update. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
Hang in there, Babu. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from Abuja.

hang in there. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. All the best.
thinking of you. Hope you get there. It's not much but it's yours. All the best.
So sorry you're going through this, Babu. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon.
Best of luck, Babu. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Blessings
Best of luck, Babu. This could happen to any of us
