Donate a coat: Omar is collecting for 44 families
A simple way to help: donate warm clothing for kids at the Jacaranda Community Church.
🇧🇩 Narayanganj, Dhaka, Bangladesh1,222 views
I coordinate donations at the Jacaranda Community Church in Narayanganj. 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 Narayanganj, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Jacaranda Community Church on Tuesday between 9am 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 Jacaranda Community Church clothing bank, which is open to everyone.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Hope things get better soon, Omar. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Blessings.
