I coordinate donations at the Baobab Community Church in Corpus Christi. 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 Corpus Christi, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Baobab Community Church on Monday between 10am 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 Baobab Community Church clothing bank, which is open to everyone. Glad we found this place.

    I can't speak highly enough about this helper. They were available when I needed them, supportive when I felt lost, and practical in their solutions.

    Couldn't have asked for better support. They listened carefully, understood my situation deeply, and provided thoughtful advice that actually worked. Thank you so much.

    I was going through a tough time and this person's support was invaluable. They didn't judge, just helped. That kind of genuine compassion is rare these days.

    You're not alone. Shared it with a few friends. Thinking of Corpus Christi.

    • Stay strong, Madeline. Gave what I could, wish it was more. After 12 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Corpus Christi.

      • Hope it all works out, Madeline. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Take care
