I coordinate donations at the Jacaranda Community Church in Dehiwala. 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 toddler through teen. If you're in Dehiwala, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Jacaranda Community Church on Monday between 9am 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 Jacaranda Community Church clothing bank, which is open to everyone. Thank you for reading my story.
