I coordinate donations at the Union Community Church in Richards Bay. 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 toddler through teen. If you're in Richards Bay, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Union Community Church on Wednesday 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 Union Community Church clothing bank, which is open to everyone.
Thanks for being kind about this.

thinking of you, Vusi. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Please keep us posted. Take care.
Hope it all works out, Vusi. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Blessings.
reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Wish I lived closer to Nashik so I could bring a meal
Sending love, Vusi. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. God bless.
Keep going, Vusi. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Take care.
