Ladysaw Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 Hello, I would love to donate some items to a local orphanage (close to E. Dulwich). Can anyone recommend one that may be reallllly in need of clothes and children's toys?Thanks!

Pugwash Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 I think you will find that orphanages are a thing of the past most are now children's homes and children are kitted out either by the local authority or by the voluntary agency managing the home.I would suggest you find whether a local church or voluntary group are sending clothes abroad to Rumania/Africa etc where orphanages are more common place Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/35886-orphanage-london/#findComment-675134 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ladysaw Posted August 31, 2013 Author Share Posted August 31, 2013 Oh is it! Okay! Learn something new everyday! Thanks for the info. A local church is a brilliant idea. Sending to Africa/Romania, hmmmmm., I rather help babies in the UK first.
