Spanish Town
I coordinate donations at the Lotus Mosque in Spanish Town. 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 kids' 3 to 5 and women's S-L. If you're in Spanish Town, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Lotus Mosque 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 Mosque 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.

  • I hope things turn around soon. After 15 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything.

    • you're not alone. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Love from Ikeja
