Donations wanted

Dornae Ray from Te Ara Poutama Alternative Education Centre

Hi. I am needing donations of feminine products, razors, soap, shampoo, conditioner, deodorants, toothpaste, toothbrushes and new socks if anyone can help out. I work in an alternative education centre with 90 students and personal hygiene is often passed over because most of these kids live on the poverty line. We have awesome support from kids can and eat my lunch so we are able to feed them but would like to help them in other ways. Our students are aged 13-17 years. Donations can be dropped off to 3 different points between 9am and 2pm or if you PM me I can collect.
