Supplies and Shipping Woes.



This pile of supplies is the start of what we want to fill our 6 jump kits with!  Thank you donors for money, a lot of it went to these supplies.  All of this cost $420 and we still need to buy gloves, masks, condoms, band-aids, alcohol, H202, soap and hand sanitizer.  On top of that we are buying school supplies or looking for donations of large sheets of white roll paper, crayons, markers, and lollipops for kids, etc.  Other funds are needed for printing posters, colouring pages, demo supplies and SHIPPING!  We need tremendous help for shipping these supplies.  United airline offers NO help for people shipping medical supplies for a charity therefore we are looking at a $150 fee on top of $40 per bag if they are overweight.  We will probably be using $600-700 of the donated money towards medical supplies and school stuff.  That leaves us with $50 for shipping.  Please consider donating to help us get our supplies there! Airlines are ridiculous we already paid $600 for our flight out of our own pockets and now need some help getting everything there.  I mean after all we are just trying to help a community of people, you'd think these corporations would get that. 

Thanks for the continued support!  Donations will be accepted until March 4th.
