I coordinate donations at the Baobab Family Centre in Mumbai. 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 Mumbai, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Baobab Family Centre on Wednesday 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 the Baobab Family Centre clothing bank, which is open to everyone. I hope life is good to you.

  • hang in there. Hope this works out for you. Put this on a community board in Oakland this morning. Thinking of Mumbai.

    • Good luck, Kumar. Shared this with my family. My neighbor in Noida donated after I showed her your page. All the best

        Good luck, Kumar. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Take care.

        • You're not alone. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. We're a small family in Kingston but we're thinking of you.

          • Hang in there, Kumar. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Blessings.

            • Stay strong. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor in Ribeirão Preto donated after I showed her your page. Greetings from Ribeirão Preto.

              • Thanks for sharing this, Kumar. Hope this works out for you. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Jakarta.
