I coordinate donations at the Acacia Community Church in Pune. 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 Pune, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Acacia Community Church 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 Acacia Community Church clothing bank, which is open to everyone.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Pune
