I coordinate donations at Lotus Refugee Centre in Petrópolis. 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 Petrópolis, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at Lotus Refugee Centre on Wednesday between 10am 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 Lotus Refugee Centre clothing bank, which is open to everyone.
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

hope it all works out. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. God bless.
Hope you get there. It's not much but it's yours. Thinking of Petrópolis.
Sending good thoughts. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Embakasi.
Wishing you peace, Luís. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.
Stay strong. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Love from Ottawa!
wishing you the best, Luís. Shared it with a few friends. Please keep us posted.
