A simple way to help: donate warm clothing for kids at the Lotus Primary School.

I coordinate donations at the Lotus Primary School in Davao City. 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 Davao City, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Lotus Primary School on Tuesday between 11am 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 Lotus Primary School clothing bank, which is open to everyone.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I'm in teaching myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Blessings.
Keep going, Romeo. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Wish I lived closer to Kyoto so I could bring a meal. Blessings
a secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. My husband and I read this together. Take care
Looking forward to the next update. Thinking of Davao City.
Best of luck. Shared it with a few friends. I'll check back for the next update. Love from Gulu.

You're not alone. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better!
sending good thoughts, Romeo. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together.
Rooting for you, Romeo. This could happen to any of us. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Blessings.
