I coordinate donations at the Lotus Primary School in Mombasa. 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 Mombasa, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Lotus Primary School on Wednesday between 11am and 2pm. 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 Primary School clothing bank, which is open to everyone. Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

  • thinking of you, Amani. Hope this works out for you. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Nha Trang.

    • Hope things get better soon, Amani. Hope this works out for you

      • Good luck, Amani. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My husband and I read this together. Take care.

        • Hope it all works out. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Greetings from Piraeus.

          • Rooting for you, Amani. It takes guts to ask. Well done.
