I coordinate donations at the Lotus Family Centre in Berlin. 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 Berlin, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Lotus Family Centre on Tuesday between 10am 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 Lotus Family Centre clothing bank, which is open to everyone. Thank you so much.

  • Wishing you peace. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Thinking of Berlin

    • This could happen to any of us. My neighbor in Tampa donated after I showed her your page. All the best.

        I hope things turn around soon. After 30 years in logistics I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Warsaw.

        • Sending strength, Gabriele. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Put this on a community board in Iloilo City this morning. God bless.

          • Best of luck, Gabriele. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. God bless.
