A chance for EVERYONE to be involved!

We love to take donations for the children and their families!
Here are a few things we have found to be blessings (and a few that they've suggested they would like/can use).
-Hygiene items (shampoo, soap, lotion)
-Toothbrushes, toothpaste (Sometimes dentists will donate these things if you tell them what it's for.)
-Multi-Vitamins (kids and pre-natal)
-Anti-parasite medicine (*also can request donations from medical supply places)
-Antifungal creme
-Antibiotics: Ciprofloxacin, Amoxicillin, Omeprazol, Ranitidin.

-Small toys (for girls and boys--nothing that requires batteries or has ghosts, monsters, etc)
-Coloring books (Spanish ones, ones with just pictures, or Bible stories are great!)
-Crayons (they are surprisingly hard to find here!)
-Small flashlights (solar?)
-Sunglasses (because we're so close to the equator the sun is super strong-plus it's really dusty)
-gloves, hats, mittens, socks (because it's COLD)

-Clown face paint (*after halloween sales?--Carlos says it is hard to find good stuff that stays on long enough, and cleans off.  This is important!)
-School supplies (pencils, crayons, erasers, pencil sharpeners)
-Prayer! We know this is essential to safe, effective, and efficient week. :)
-Sponsor a team member! So far there are about 10-12 interested. Mostly bolivians-and include university students (medicine, engineering, etc), pastor, mechanic, teacher, etc. I'm excited!
-For $10 your money can go so much farther by purchasing the hygiene/school/kid items here in Bolivia. Email me if you want more info!
-Supplies for activities with the kiddos. We've utilized puppets, parachute, and pictures. (CEF has some good resources).

It's a blessing to serve alongside of each of you.  I know I say this, and I know it sounds cliche, but it would be impossible to do this without the help of YOU.  I count it a privilege to represent you over in Bolivia knowing that you have made sacrifices and choices to help me get there-and to help me provide the missionaries with resources that make their job of reaching those who need the Gospel easier.
