I coordinate donations at Acacia Refugee Centre in Hồ Chí Minh 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 Hồ Chí Minh City, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at Acacia Refugee Centre on Friday between 11am 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 Acacia Refugee Centre clothing bank, which is open to everyone.
I hope life is good to you.

Hope it all works out, Long. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. God bless.
So sorry you're going through this. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Wish I lived closer to Saint-Étienne so I could bring a meal. God bless.
Your post was clear and honest. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Blessings.
Looking forward to the next update. Sent it to 22 people at work. Thinking of Hồ Chí Minh City
Sending good thoughts, Long. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
