I coordinate donations at the Union Family Centre in Rotterdam. 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 Rotterdam, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at the Union Family Centre on Monday between 9am 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 the Union Family Centre clothing bank, which is open to everyone.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

This is the kind of person who restores your faith in humanity. They didn't just offer help; they genuinely cared about my wellbeing and followed through on every commitment.
- Exactly what I needed
Perfect example of someone making a real difference. They took time out of their busy schedule to help me and never made me feel like a burden.

Hang in there. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Take care
Praying for you, Nadia. This could happen to any of us. Take care
Hope things get better soon. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. After 11 years in hospitality I know how hard it is to ask for anything.
