Unspecified donations. Make a selection for me. Please choose a
needy child or program and make the enclosed donation in my name
for that cause.
|
In-Kind Contributions of Commodities or Equipment
|
Khaki, navy blue and sky blue fabrics are needed for uniforms for
needy students to attend school. Many students stay home from school
and eventually become illiterate only because they cannot afford a
uniform.
|
|
Simple items (taken for granted by rich kids) are scarce for many
school children. Donations of school supplies like note books,
pencils, pens, rulers, crayons, erasers, coloring books, etc. are
always in high demand. Can you help with a donation?
|
|
Out-of-school youth love to play soccer and other sports but cannot
afford uniforms or equipment. Can you or your organization supply
equipment for such sports as soccer, netball, basketball, cricket,
or field hockey?
|
|
LOCAL REQUEST: Home Management programs are in need of appliances
for training in the arts of cooking, dressmaking, baking, and
hospitality services. Local contributions of stoves, blenders,
mixers, refrigerators, sewing machines, and other utensils are
most welcome.
|
|
LOCAL REQUEST: Breakfasts & snacks are incentives to attract hungry
children to school. Food donations are always useful and appreciated
by the children. A hungry, malnourished child will eventually become
learning impaired.
