Stockings for Samoa and Tonga

Tis the Season...


With the Holiday's just around the corner our thoughts and prayers are still with those affected by the tsunami but especially with the small children. We dont have a huge budget, but our idea is to give the children back home a little something to look forward to come Christmas morning. Due to budget restrictions what we do have we will be using for shipping cost. So, we are asking for whatever help we can get with PROJECT CHRISTMAS "Stockings for Samoa Tonga" what is needed now are STOCKINGS and stocking stuffers for the children for Christmas. We are in need of about 1200 stockings to send to those children who will have nothing for Christmas this year. If this is something you or your family would like to be a part of whether it be one or one hundred it would be amazing. I couldn't imagine my little ones having to go through a Christmas with nothing, so please if you can donate stockings, stocking stuffers, or stuffed stocking please contact Adele, Wendy or Lita of SRW at samoareliefwave@gmail.com or Kuuipo of A Sweet Sale at kuuipovea@hotmail.com ..Thanks Kuuipo:)
