We have recently mentioned that the RBS Orphanage has requested shampoo and toothpaste for its children. If the RBS has need of this, Sokolovka most likely needs these items too. We would like to raise funds to purchase and take these needed items to both orphanages.
Since the RBS children are divided into 9 groups, we would like to purchase items for each group: 2 large bottles of shampoo, and 20 tubes of toothpaste. We are asking for $5/bottle of shampoo and $2/tube of toothpaste. (The actual cost is a little less. These amounts will help to cover the expense of having someone buy and deliver the items, and the cost of PayPal and transfer fees.) So for the RBS, we need to raise $50/group or $450. It adds up quickly for 200 children!
We do not know how the children are divided up at Sokolovka. We do know that there are 170, so about $400 should buy an equivalent amount of shampoo and toothpaste per child.
