Coats, boots, hats and gloves are needed before winter.
🇦🇷 Mar del Plata, Buenos Aires, Argentina551 views
I coordinate donations at the Union Family Centre in Mar del Plata. 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 Mar del Plata, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Union Family Centre on Friday between 9am 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 Union Family Centre clothing bank, which is open to everyone.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Sending good thoughts, Regina. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected!
Wishing you the best. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't give up. God bless.
Wishing you peace, Regina. Shared it with a few friends. All the best.
Hope it all works out, Regina. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. After 27 years in logistics I know how hard it is to ask for anything. Take care.
You're not alone. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Blessings.
a secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. All the best.
Thinking of you. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
Sending strength, Regina. I hope things turn around soon. Greetings from Duque de Caxias.

best of luck. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Wish I lived closer to Gondar so I could bring a meal. All the best.
Sending love. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Mar del Plata.
