I coordinate donations at Jacaranda Refugee Centre in Jimma. 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 Jimma, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at Jacaranda Refugee Centre on Friday between 10am 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 Jacaranda Refugee Centre clothing bank, which is open to everyone. Thanks for being kind about this.

    A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. I have a 10 year old who wants to send good wishes too

    • Wishing you peace. I hope things turn around soon. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
