Hoping that you can help with something. Very good friends of our recently began caring for their 10-year-old nephew and 7-year-old niece (in addition to their own three young children) due to an emergency situation with the children’s parents. Our friends will be taking the steps necessary to file for legal custody and the next couple of weeks are shaping up to be some trying times while they sort through all the details and attempt to navigate the emotional components of the situation for themselves, as well as the children. Among the many things that this family needs while they begin to adjust to their new normal are some clothes – new or gently used – for their nephew and niece, who now don’t have much in the way of clothes or shoes.
I’m hoping that either you can contribute or know someone who can help source some of the following:
10-year-old Boy
Pants – size 14 slim or regular
Shoes/sneakers – men’s size 5
Shirts/sweaters – boy’s size large
Pajamas, underwear, socks, etc.
7-year-old girl
Pants – size 10 slim
Shoes/sneakers – ladies 2
Shirts/sweaters – girls size large
Pajamas, underwear, socks, etc.
If you have any items described above that you can donate, or know someone who does that could help, please pass this along. I’d be happy to pick up the donations or coordinate shipping – just email or call Kathy: 917.579.7831.
