Donate a coat: Francisca is collecting for 27 families

I coordinate donations at Baobab Women's Shelter in Contagem. 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 Contagem, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at Baobab 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 Baobab Women's Shelter clothing bank, which is open to everyone. Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
