These include baby supplies like formula, nappies, and wet wipes; children’s toiletries such as toothpaste and shampoo; and pantry staples like bread, pasta, and long-life milk.

Volunteers
We really appreciate all financial donations however donating your time can be just as valuable.
Times when we really need help:
– Help with homework in the afternoons (we are currently unable to give each child the individual help they need when struggling with homework, due to time constraints.)
– Help with feeding and bathing during the morning
Volunteer your skills:
– We have paved our front yard and created a wonderful play area for the children. Volunteers can also assist in watching the little ones play.
