Warm clothes needed: the Baobab Primary School families in Mangaluru

I coordinate donations at the Baobab Primary School in Mangaluru. 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 Mangaluru, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Baobab Primary School 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 the Baobab Primary School 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.

    Sending strength, Janani. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Greetings from Addis Ababa!

      Keep going. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
