Coats, boots, hats and gloves are needed before the first frost.

I coordinate donations at the Union Primary School in Toronto. 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 Toronto, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Union Primary School on Sunday between 9am 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 Union Primary School clothing bank, which is open to everyone.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Hang in there. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Thinking of Toronto.
good luck, Eugene. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Take care
So sorry you're going through this. Gave what I could, wish it was more. It's not much but it's yours. Greetings from Campinas.
thanks for sharing this, Eugene. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. God bless
Hope things get better soon. I hope things turn around soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Toronto
Good luck. Shared it with a few friends. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too
rooting for you, Eugene. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Take care!

Best of luck. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. I'm in public service myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Blessings.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. Greetings from Tampa.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Thinking of Toronto.
