Help - Updated info - 12/21/2015

You Guys/gals, sisters and brothers I am working with a ministry in my church helping kids on the street with ages from 0 to 18 and most of them don't have shoes, shirts, shorts, the youngers sometimes don't have a blanket, diapers, food, pacifiers, formulas, most of them won't have a toy for this next December, there's a lot of need among this people, I am coming here to ask for help, if you have USED CLOTHING or TOYS IN GOOD CONDITION and are willing to help these kids just let me know and I can give you my address in the USA where you can send your contributions. Remember it's not necessary to contribute with new things, we are asking only for USED CLOTHING OR TOYS IN GOOD CONDITION. Thank you very much!

FYI we will be taking your donations till the end of October, that way we will have all the month of november to bring the donations by ship with the forwarding company (it takes 4 weeks for them to deliver via ships) and then we will have the first weeks of december to organize everything and then to give the donations to the kids.

I have no kids to donate toys and I took clothes to Goodwill earlier this year so I don't have much to contribute but I pray that the Lord's blessings will be realized in your ministry and that it will prosper and reach many kids!

Amen brother! Thank you very much!

This sounds like a very worthy cause! I'm glad you are a part of it! The world needs stuff like this.

Anyway - I have a great place here in Utah that is very similar to what you describe. I have donated there and recently took a bunch of toys and clothes. Sorry I missed ya man.

No problem brother, you are helping others and that's exactly what matters!

God bless you!

BTW I will leave our address in the USA here in case anyone want to contribute, that address is from a forwarding company in Miami, and they will deliver the goods to our address in Venezuela.

I also have a small request, if possible write a letter of blessings for the kids, we will read it to the kids. I will make sure to take pictures of them with the donations!

God bless you all!!!

Karam, are you in Venezuela?

Correct RavenWolf

That's cool! It's awesome to have so many international people here!

Thanks RW

If you can, please consider passing our request to your family/friends, I am sure some of them can help too.

Thank you friends, God bless you!

Thanks to those who have contributed

Guys if you still want to contribute you can do it
The freight forwarder will dispatch all donations December 15th, 2015 by plane so we will get them on time for Christmas and they WON'T CHARGE US FOR THE SERVICE! The owner told us as we are helping the kids they will help us to give them a different Christmas!

So, send your contributions (toys, clothing, letters, whatever you want to send, will surely help) remember there's no need to send new things, used in good condition contributions are really very well accepted. 

Thank you and God bless you.

Today we got word from the freight forwarding company, the donations are in customs but it will take some time to clear up from there because customs officers are working with shipments that arrived earlier, please pray that we can have these in time for Christmas, if not, I am sure they will mean a lot for the people getting them.
