I coordinate donations at Harmony Refugee Centre in Onitsha. 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 2 to 14 years. If you're in Onitsha, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at Harmony Refugee Centre on Saturday 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 Harmony Refugee Centre clothing bank, which is open to everyone.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Rooting for you, Efe. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My husband and I read this together. Love from London.
stay strong, Efe. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Love from Adama
Best of luck. Hope you get there. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Onitsha
Stay strong, Efe. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Greetings from Saket.
Thanks for sharing this, Efe. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it

So sorry you're going through this, Efe. Shared this with my family. All the best.
Sending good thoughts, Efe. Shared this with my family. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best
Best of luck. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Put this on a community board in Málaga this morning.
Praying for you, Efe. Hope you get there. We're a small family in Mangaluru but we're thinking of you. Blessings.
I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Sent it to 3 people at work. Greetings from Bacoor.
I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless!
Take care. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from Tokyo
