Celebration and Supplies

We are 17 days away from our departure to Ethiopia to pick up our little girl Mahelet! Excited is an understatement. One of the things we are going to do while we are there is bring a few supplies as well as have a small celebration at the orphanage she has been at these past several months. We plan to bring small gifts to all the children, supplies for the team working there, and a guitar to leave behind for them to keep.

We would love any and all help anyone can offer to help with the celebration and supplies.

A few items that would be great are:

1. bubbles for blowing
2. coloring books
3. crayons
4. rubber balls that can be inflated
5. handheld airpump
6. monetary donation $55 already donated!!
7. a guitar donated by some wonderful people in Carthage, Missouri
8. a capo
9. guitar strings
10. guitar picks
11. guitar case also donated from Carthage, Missouri
12. tuner
13. single serve baby formula (Similac)
14. new blankets
15. diapers/wipes
16. ointments-diaper rash cream, antibiotic ointments, etc.
17. other the counter medications for infants and kids i.e. tylenol, etc.

Thanks so much for everyone's help and feel free to leave a comment here or email us of what donation you want to help with! You can use our PayPal button if you want to make a monetary donation for the supplies.
