Zaria
I coordinate donations at the Pioneer Family Centre in Zaria. 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 Zaria, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Pioneer Family Centre on Sunday between 10am 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 Pioneer Family Centre clothing bank, which is open to everyone. I hope life is good to you.

    Sending love, Chiamaka. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Thinking of Zaria

      I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. All the best

        Hang in there, Chiamaka. This could happen to any of us. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. All the best

          gave what I could, wish it was more. My neighbor in Gujranwala donated after I showed her your page. Blessings.

            So sorry you're going through this, Chiamaka. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless.

              Thanks for sharing this, Chiamaka. This could happen to any of us. I went through something like this 10 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Surabaya

                thinking of you, Chiamaka. I hope things turn around soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from Envigado

                  Take care, Chiamaka. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Take care.

                    This could happen to any of us. Put this on a community board in Mississauga this morning. Blessings

                        Hope things get better soon. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. I'll check back for the next update. Blessings.
