about 4 weeks left

so there is about 4 weeks left until my trip to mexico...i'm really anxious and excited to visit a new country and to meet new children. the task for this trip is to hand out care packages to children that live on the street. my goal is to have 100 care packages for this trip, it's the first time i do this...so it is very exciting. so far i have 5!

there are lots of people that have joined my facebook group, but only a few have been moved to donating things that we need for the packages...what can i do to motivate these individuals in the cause? to make them realize that even a donation of a stuffed animal can make a difference to a childs life. many kids that are struck by harsh poverty do not even have any toys, they play with "toys" that they make with garbage that they find.

reminder of what we need:
-toothbrush
-toothpaste
-underwear (new)
-beanie babies (can be gently used)
-soap/ anti bacterial

  • thanks 2 LITTLE EARTH for donations!! (2 big boxes!!!!)
  • THANKS TO LINDSAY 4 DONATIONS OF TOOTHBRUSHES,STICKERs,SOAPS & SHAMPOOS :)
  • THANKS TO LAURA ZALDANA for donating a huge stack of pencils,pens,crayons & beanie babies :)
