Jimma
I coordinate donations at Acacia 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 Acacia Refugee Centre on Saturday between 11am 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. Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

  • Take care, Hanna. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I'm in nursing myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of Jimma.
