Winter coats and boots for 14 children at the Maple Primary School in Dehiwala

I coordinate donations at the Maple Primary School in Dehiwala. 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 Dehiwala, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Maple Primary School on Tuesday 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 Maple Primary School clothing bank, which is open to everyone. Glad we found this place.
