I coordinate donations at the Baobab Primary School in St. Petersburg. 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 St. Petersburg, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Baobab Primary School on Sunday 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 Baobab Primary School clothing bank, which is open to everyone. Glad we found this place.

      Thinking of you and your family. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Put this on a community board in Rohini this morning. All the best.

        I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Blessings.
