Warm clothes needed: the Cedar Family Centre families in Alexandria

I coordinate donations at the Cedar Family Centre in Alexandria. 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 Alexandria, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Cedar Family Centre on Friday between 9am 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 Cedar Family Centre clothing bank, which is open to everyone. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
