I coordinate donations at Baobab Women's Shelter in Ottawa. 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 kids' 3 to 5 and women's S-L. If you're in Ottawa, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at Baobab Women's Shelter on Sunday between 10am and 2pm. 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. I hope life is good to you.

  • Keep going, Kevin. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Don't give up.

    • Praying for you, Kevin. This could happen to any of us. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.

        Sending strength, Kevin. Gave what I could, wish it was more. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry
