I coordinate donations at the Lotus Primary School in Mbale. 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 Mbale, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Lotus Primary School on Saturday between 9am 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 the Lotus Primary School clothing bank, which is open to everyone. Thank you so much.

  • Thinking of you. It takes guts to ask. Well done. It's not much but it's yours. Greetings from București.

    • Rooting for you, Nyambura. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Take care

      • Rooting for you. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Put this on a community board in Aurora this morning. Blessings

        • Wishing you peace. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My husband and I read this together. God bless.
