I coordinate donations at Maple Refugee Centre in Istanbul. 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 Istanbul, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at Maple Refugee Centre on Wednesday between 10am 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 Maple Refugee Centre clothing bank, which is open to everyone.
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

hope it all works out, Orhan. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
Hope things get better soon, Orhan. Shared this with my family
so sorry you're going through this, Orhan. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Blessings
praying for you, Orhan. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My neighbor in Nuremberg donated after I showed her your page
