I coordinate donations at the Acacia Community Church in Davao City. 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 Davao City, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Acacia Community Church on Friday between 11am 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 Acacia Community Church clothing bank, which is open to everyone. I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

          • Good luck. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We're a small family in Dundee but we're thinking of you. Take care.

            • I hope things turn around soon. My neighbor in Anaheim donated after I showed her your page
