I coordinate donations at the Acacia Mosque in Addis Ababa. 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 Addis Ababa, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Acacia Mosque on Monday 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 the Acacia Mosque clothing bank, which is open to everyone.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
