I coordinate donations at the Harmony Community Church in Cape Town. 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 Cape Town, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Harmony Community Church on Tuesday between 10am and 4pm. 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 Harmony Community Church clothing bank, which is open to everyone. You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

  • sending strength, Elmarie. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Blessings.

    • Sending love, Elmarie. Your post was clear and honest. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care.

        Thinking of you, Elmarie. Shared it with a few friends. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Take care.

        • Sending good thoughts, Elmarie. Hope you get there. Sent it to 11 people at work

          • Wishing you peace. Hope you get there. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Take care!
