Dear friends! We launched a new Givealittle fundraiser for delivering bodywarmers to Ukraine. A bodywarmer is a 10 x 13 cm 100% natural pad which provides 20+ hours of gentle warmth. For each $20 you donate we are can buy 12 bodywarmers and hand-deliver them straight to people who need them.
Also, we deliver wool thermals, socks, blankets and other items donated by friends of Ukraine from New Zealand to Ukraine.
And we need your help on that!
