1) Canned food, and non-perishable items will be donated to United Food Bank at Stapley and the 60.
2) Household items and clothing will be donated to Lana Hugo, a friend who is helping African (and other) Refugees on an ongoing basis. She is expecting another family to come to Phoenix in April. If a donated item is not needed, it will be sold in a yard sale, and the money itself will go to the refugees.
3) Financial Donations (Remember, no cash at the park, due to newly discovered City rules.)
Option 1: Feeding America, who supports United Food Bank in the valley.
Option 2: Kolfe Boys from the Government run Kolfe Orphanage in Ethiopia.
Updated! I spoke with Children's Hope Chest this morning, and they set up an account specifically for our party money. The director over Ethiopia will be speaking with one of her people who lives in Ethiopia on Wednesday about what needs he sees that our money could be used for. I did suggest the fruit and shoes. This is good news for all of you, as now, you can have a tax deduction on this money as well! Three of us from this event are in daily email contact with some of the older boys.
Option 3: Give to BOTH!!!
