I coordinate donations at Unity Refugee Centre in Sapporo. 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 Sapporo, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at Unity Refugee Centre on Tuesday between 11am 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 Unity Refugee Centre clothing bank, which is open to everyone. Thanks for being kind about this.

    Rooting for you, Mai. Looking forward to the next update. I have a 6 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Greetings from Yogyakarta.

    • Keep going, Mai. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I have a 17 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
