ADVICE to generous Foreigners who would like to donate toys, note books, clothes etc.

First of all, thank you for your generosity.

Please remember that cultural habits are different in each country, almost between easterners and westerners.

If you have to purchase items in your country, please remember that for the same amount of money we can purchase much more here and almost what is really useful for them.
