Donate a coat: Ngozi is collecting for 21 families
Coats, boots, hats and gloves are needed before winter.
🇳🇬 Lagos, Lagos, Nigeria505 views
I coordinate donations at Baobab Women's Shelter in Lagos. 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 4-12. If you're in Lagos, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at Baobab Women's Shelter on Thursday between 11am 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 Baobab Women's Shelter clothing bank, which is open to everyone.
Glad we found this place.

So sorry you're going through this, Ngozi. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
Sending good thoughts, Ngozi. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Greetings from Santos.
A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out
Sending strength, Ngozi. Your post was clear and honest. All the best
I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Greetings from Los Angeles

Take care. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I have a 10 year old who wants to send good wishes too. God bless.
stay strong. Hope this works out for you. I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Thinking of Lagos.
Sending love. Your post was clear and honest. Wish I lived closer to Reims so I could bring a meal.
Keep going. Hope this works out for you. We're a small family in Medan but we're thinking of you.
wishing you the best, Ngozi. I hope things turn around soon. My husband and I read this together.
