I coordinate donations at the Cedar Mosque in Bornova. 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 Bornova, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Cedar Mosque on Sunday between 9am 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 the Cedar Mosque clothing bank, which is open to everyone.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Hope it all works out. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. After 27 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Alcalá de Henares.
Hope things get better soon. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
Take care. Looking forward to the next update. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care.
Hope things get better soon, Orhan. Looking forward to the next update. I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too

Hang in there, Orhan. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.
thinking of you. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Take care
Rooting for you. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Blessings

Stay strong, Orhan. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Bornova
