I coordinate donations at the Jacaranda Family Centre in Laval. 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 Laval, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Jacaranda Family Centre on Tuesday 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 Jacaranda Family Centre clothing bank, which is open to everyone. Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
