I coordinate donations at the Acacia Family Centre in Akron. 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 4-12. If you're in Akron, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Acacia Family Centre on Friday 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 Acacia Family Centre clothing bank, which is open to everyone.
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

Sending good thoughts, Theodore. This could happen to any of us. I'll check back for the next update. Blessings.
Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Mumbai.
You're not alone, Theodore. Looking forward to the next update. Greetings from Surrey.
Wishing you the best. Hope this works out for you. Put this on a community board in Athens this morning. All the best
Hang in there. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Take care!
