Regular price $15.00 Sale

We are collecting gently used uniforms and school supplies for poor children in Nicaragua and Honduras who do not have uniforms or backpacks for school. These items are needed to keep children clothed and safe from predators. When students in Nicaragua don’t have a school uniform to wear each day, they are more likely to be targeted by traffickers and predators. Yes, many youth, especially girls, are exploited due to poverty and lack of social services. Below is the list of needs to help children of all ages be equipped properly for school. Here is how you can help, just by donating new or gently used items:

(Boys & Girls) All sizes are needed for age 3 years up to age 18 years old

SHIRTS/TOPS:  White Oxford style short sleeve button downs

PANTS/SKIRTS:  Navy blue only (No shorts or “skorts”)

SHOES:  Black shoes only in good condition

SOCKS:  White socks for girls, black socks for boys

BACKPACKS:  New or gently used backpacks
