Hi all,
I have come upon a charity in my internet travels, which I have checked into and it IS legit (you can research for yourself). People around the world who have been to Ghana have met the CEO of this charity, and been to his orphanages (the orphanages his charity helps, should I say) and he does indeeed do the things he claims he does.
He is currently trying to raise funds for the various orphanages christmas parties, and thus far no-one has donated to this years parties. I think it may be because his website is playing up (I cant access it via internet explorer).
Anyhow, he is on facebook, and without being his friend you have access to his wall and photos, and can contact him that way if you feel so moved.
If anyone knows of any church or charity that sends a shipping container to Ghana from your area, it would be nice to collect donated goods (secondhand is fine) to send along to the orphans, and the pregnant women and others he oversees. All sorts of items would be useful..books, clothes, manchester, kitchenware, electronics, toys etc....

It's pretty rotten to have no donations for this years Christmas parties!!! A quick whip around an office or playgroup...you wont miss it, but they'll appreciate it no end. How can they become educated with no books to read? How can they escape poverty with no education - and illiteracy??
