I coordinate donations at Maple Women's Shelter in Caxias do Sul. 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 2 to 14 years. If you're in Caxias do Sul, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at Maple Women's Shelter on Wednesday between 11am 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 Maple Women's Shelter 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.

Good luck, Sérgio. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
Praying for you, Sérgio. This could happen to any of us. Put this on a community board in Fresno this morning. Blessings.
Hang in there, Sérgio. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Love from Iztapalapa
