Entebbe
I coordinate donations at Liberty Refugee Centre in Entebbe. 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 Entebbe, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at Liberty Refugee Centre on Saturday 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 Liberty Refugee Centre clothing bank, which is open to everyone. You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

  • wishing you the best. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from Marrakesh.

    • It takes guts to ask. Well done. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Thinking of Entebbe.
