I coordinate donations at the Cedar Mosque in Bogotá. 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 Bogotá, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Cedar Mosque on Monday between 9am 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 the Cedar Mosque clothing bank, which is open to everyone.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

You're not alone. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Don't give up. All the best.
