If you want to help, but can't donate

We all know it's not always easy to donate money for something. But, there are a lot of other things you can do to help.

First of all, you can copy the "Chipin" on the right here and put it on your blog. Getting more people to see it helps a lot.

If you have something you could donate, we could have an auction, or maybe a competition. That would be great too.

And if doing nothing seems like something you can or want to do, that's just fine too. Everyone can't help everywhere, all the time.

Thank you all for your contributions.

Donations

Thank you so much for donating. While we were in Bulgaria we bought diapers that the orphanage needed. The taxi driver was a bit confused when he realized how many packs of diapers we wanted to get into the car. We were sitting in the backseat, all covered in packs of diapers. I'm pretty sure the staff at the store and the taxi driver will remember us forever.

I'll be going to pick up my baby girl as soon as I'm allowed. So, please keep donating and I'll get them what they need the next time I'm there too. We're also going to try to get more clothes for the children. They desperatly need it.
If you have clothes to donate, you have to send them to me, and I'll pay for the shipping, or bring them with me when I go.

It's time

Tomorrow morning we're leaving our house to go celebrate Tinys birthday. Then I'll go straight to my dads house and we'll leave from there on Sunday morning.
I'll try to update the adoption blogs while I'm down there, if I have the time.

Please help me spread the word, and donate if you can. Every $ will help.

Thank you.

To help

I know that a lot of people don't have a chance to donate money. I hope everyone knows and understands that that’s fine, and it’s nothing to feel bad about at all. One of my friends came up with the idea that she would make a painting and have an auction. There are so many ways to help.

If someone wants to donate clothes or other things, that's possible too. But, the shipping can be expensive. If you get it here, I will try to take it with me on my second trip.

Also, a big help is to spread the word around. Send the link to this page to your friends.

Donations

I am in the process of adopting a little girl from Bulgaria. I will go on the first trip in less than a week. When I'm down there, I'm going to ask if there is anything they need: like diapers, plates, cups, formula, rice, blankets and pillows. Well, pretty much anything.

I'm hoping that many of you can find the time and money to support this orphanage that have children from 0-3 years old.

Since WordPress doesn't allow this type of widget, I made a new blog, just for this. Here I can also update everyone on what's happening and you can write to me if you have ideas on what you want your donation to go towards. The links to my adoption blogs are on the right.

So, let's get started. Please help me get the orphanage some food and new things. And most importantly, help me get people here and involved. Thank you so much to everyone who has helped so far.
