I coordinate donations at Maple Refugee Centre in Mandaue. 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 Mandaue, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at Maple Refugee Centre on Saturday 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 Maple Refugee Centre clothing bank, which is open to everyone.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Thinking of you and your family, Christian. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. We're a small family in New Delhi but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Mandaue.
Hope it all works out. Shared this with my family. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Take care.
Praying for you, Christian. Shared it with a few friends. Blessings

Best of luck. I hope things turn around soon. I'll check back for the next update. God bless.
I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I'm in teaching myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Greetings from Quezon City.
