Things We Collect

Thank you for your generosity and support. At this time, we are experiencing a surge in donations due to a significant number of individuals leaving the country. Regrettably, we are currently overwhelmed with contributions and have limited storage capacity.

As a result, we are unable to accept any further donations of fabric, bed linen, or towels at this moment. We sincerely appreciate your understanding and encourage you to check back with us at a later date.

Thank you for your continued support and consideration.

Bed Linen

Pre-loved or New Soft Fleece Blankets or Fabric

We use these to make colourful hoodies and track pants. The fleece blankets supplied to children onboard Emirates flights are ideal for this, in fact we have many Emirates blankets gifted to us directly from Emirates Airlines. Other fleece blankets obtained from local supermarkets would work too

Pre-loved or New Soft Towels

Shower Curtains

This may seem like a strange one, but we use shower curtains to add a waterproof layer to our Angel Wings© (reusable sanitary pads). We find that the cheapest IKEA shower curtain works very well for this purpose.

Unused Toothbrushes

Both children and adult size toothbrushes are used in kits prepared for both little children as well as teenagers.

Girls and Boys Accessories

Accessories such as hairbands, headbands, bracelets, etc. make for nice gifts to add to the packages we send.
