Story

Earlier this year they lost their entire budget for craft supplies, which means they are desperate for anything that will stimulate the children.&nbsp;</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 8pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Any donations would be greatly received, the money will go towards a half way house being built for the older orphans who the charity will work with to integrate into society</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 8pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">As well as money, It would be great if you could donate any spare toys or craft items such as:&nbsp;</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 8pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">* play dough</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 8pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">* acrylic paint</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 8pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">* coloured paper</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 8pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">* large sketchbooks</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 8pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">* shape punchers</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 8pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">* coloured paper</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 8pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">* glue</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 8pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">* (whiteboard) markers</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 8pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">* light emitting toys(anything that can be considered as such. catchy to the eye)</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 8pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">* sound emitting toys(or toys that at a push start playing a tune)</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 8pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">* play dough</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 8pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">* illuminating spirals</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 8pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">* posters with scenes from cartoons, animated movies or simply posters for kids</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 8pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">* fairy lights</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 8pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">* a set of musical instruments for children</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 8pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">We are happy to collect any items - just give us a call on either Lucy 07920518323 or Emily 07788877933 email lucy.bourne@expressware.co.uk or summers.em@hotmail.com</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 8pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Also, if anyone would like anymore information - or feel you could help in other ways, &nbsp;we would be happy to chat with you.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 8pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Thank you in advance</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 8pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Lucy and Emily</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 8pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">xxx</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal">&nbsp;</p> </p>
