Money!
Yes, money is probably what we need most.
We try to run our organization as effectivly and economically
as we can, but we can't do it without a certain infrastructure
and that implies overhead costs. Although
we direct as much as possible directly to our projects, we also
need money to pay the rent of our headquarters; salaries for
our assistants; electricity; internet and maintenance.
Since february of 2008 we have a small store in our office where
we sell our own handmade products, such as children's books
and decorated notebooks. This helps us to be a bit more self-sustainable,
but money will always be welcome!

Art
Projects
If you decide to send
us
art supplies, please
remember that more is
not always better.
It is our experience that
it's worthwhile to spend
a little more on, for example,
good quality markers that
last for months, rather than
buying the cheapest once
that work only once!
The following is a list of
supplies we always have
a need for:
acrylic (Rowney System 3) or tempera paint in bottles
markers
(preferably Crayola or Roseart)
construction paper
