I coordinate donations at Cedar Women's Shelter in Tlaquepaque. 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 2 to 14 years. If you're in Tlaquepaque, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at Cedar Women's Shelter on Wednesday 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 Cedar Women's Shelter clothing bank, which is open to everyone.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Thinking of you and your family, Joaquín. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. After 8 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Wishing you the best, Joaquín. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Tlaquepaque
sending strength. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I'm in nursing myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. God bless.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. Greetings from Likoni
Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. After 20 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings
Stay strong, Joaquín. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home
Take care, Joaquín. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We're a small family in Islamabad but we're thinking of you.
I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Thinking of Tlaquepaque.
Keep going, Joaquín. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Sent it to 20 people at work. Thinking of Tlaquepaque
wishing you peace, Joaquín. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
Wishing you the best, Joaquín. It takes guts to ask. Well done
Take care, Joaquín. Looking forward to the next update
Best of luck, Joaquín. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Take care.
Thanks for sharing this, Joaquín. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
Shared this with my family. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Take care!
