Hi All,


Besides dropping the stuff at Salvation Army, could anyone please share where else we could donate our used stuff to?

TIA

Have you think of donating to Overseas.

I happened to stumble on this Charity Organisation -Uday Foundation in India- http://www.udayfoundationindia.org

They are having a Drive :

Maybe you would like to think about it.
I have checked to Courier a parcel to India around 10kg is about SGD120.

I think this is a good and direct way to help the poor... :xedfingers:

You can send them to Gaden Shartse Dro-Phen Ling at 12 Guillemard Lane.

Tel : 6344 9521 / 6342 0806

I think what they need are clothes, shoes/slippers and blankets.

I was told Red Cross Phillpines have a partnership with LBC shipping (level 2 Lucky Plaza) who is collection used clothing for the Typhoon Haiyan hit homeless people. Can any KSP help verify this?

Thinking of going down on the weekend with DS’s stuff… …

The church is organizing a container to be sent to Philippines tomorrow morning. Anyone who wish to donate clothing please do so by tonight. Thanks.\"
