I coordinate donations at Acacia Women's Shelter in Freiburg. 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 Freiburg, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at Acacia Women's Shelter on Monday 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 Acacia Women's Shelter clothing bank, which is open to everyone.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

thinking of you, Birgit. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We're a small family in Gulu but we're thinking of you.
Best of luck. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. God bless.
Keep going, Birgit. I hope things turn around soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
Sending love, Birgit. Gave what I could, wish it was more.
Shared it with a few friends. We're a small family in Jakarta Barat but we're thinking of you. Love from Jakarta Barat!
best of luck, Birgit. Shared this with my family.
Rooting for you. Looking forward to the next update. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. All the best.
Shared it with a few friends. My husband and I read this together. All the best
rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Pelotas.
I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Love from Warsaw.
Keep going. This could happen to any of us. I went through something like this 4 years ago and strangers helped me out.
