I can't donate I'm sorry but if you are near a Warehouse, they have 75% off most Christmas decorations/wrapping paper etc (today is the last day). A lot of the packs of decorations/tinsel/wrapping paper are under $1 each, so it might be worth going to have a look???]]> Mon, 04 Jan 2010 08:03:46 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=30732&PID=884810&title=donations-for-kiddies#884810 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=30732&PID=884619&title=donations-for-kiddies#884619 Author: GingerBaby

Oh yeah contact BJ Ball papers in Mt Wellington.

Someone gave me their name and said they got free paper from them. Not sure if they still exist or not but might be well worth a try. My contact said she went there a few years back and they brought out a forklift truck full and told her to take as much as she wanted.]]> Sat, 02 Jan 2010 22:06:41 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=30732&PID=883834&title=donations-for-kiddies#883834 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=30732&PID=883754&title=donations-for-kiddies#883754 Author: sunnyhoney

Thanks ladies, this is awesome!!!!!!

I don't think schools and kindies are allowed to use toilet rolls for arts & crafts anymore? Crazy huh!

Hi ladies -

6 weeks before Christmas my Aunt started an inner city playgroup for needy kids with capacity for 15 kiddies. Well they now have 56, have got bigger premises through a Church and are applying for funding but this could take a few months and in the meantime my Aunt is taking in rolls of paper towels for them to draw on as they have NOTHING.

So I thought I'd appeal to you for a cleanout and instead of throwing things away how about sending to me for the group?

Things that would be HUGELY appreciated include...

• Greeting card covers (including Christmas cards) / wrapping paper / ribbon & ties / gift bags

• Tinsel and old christmas tree ornaments

• Glitter, non toxic paints & brushes

• Coloured paper / card

• Ice cream containers / egg cartons / coloured milk or juice bottle lids / biscuit trays (for putting paint in)or anything that can be cleaned and used in crafts

• Scraps of fabric

• Babies toys & equipments

• General (not broken) toys

• Shells

• Cushions

• Cookie shape cutters / measuring cups / measuring spoons etc for water & sand play

I can't thank you enough for reading this far! If you have anything at all please PM me or reply to this post and I will send you my address, or if you're in Auckland I will pick up.

Thanks ladies!]]> Sat, 02 Jan 2010 18:22:30 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=30732&PID=883639&title=donations-for-kiddies#883639
