I coordinate donations at Acacia Refugee Centre in Heliopolis. 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 Heliopolis, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at Acacia Refugee 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 Acacia Refugee Centre clothing bank, which is open to everyone. I hope life is good to you.

      Sending strength, Jamal. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My husband and I read this together. Blessings!

      • Good luck, Jamal. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My neighbor in Uberlândia donated after I showed her your page. God bless

        • stay strong. I hope things turn around soon. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from San Francisco

          • Wishing you the best. I hope things turn around soon. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless.

            • wishing you peace. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Sent it to 9 people at work.

              • Keep going. This could happen to any of us. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Heliopolis.

                • So sorry you're going through this, Jamal. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I'm in construction myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Take care.

                  • best of luck, Jamal. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Blessings

                    • hang in there, Jamal. Your post was clear and honest. After 23 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless.

                      • Stay strong. Shared it with a few friends. Sent it to 21 people at work. Take care.
