I coordinate donations at the Sycamore Family Centre in Kawasaki. 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 Kawasaki, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Sycamore Family Centre on Thursday between 10am 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 Sycamore Family Centre clothing bank, which is open to everyone. Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

    You're not alone, Kumiko. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. After 20 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best.
