Stuffing Suitcases for Souls

Fill the suitcase, bless the soul

As a part of New Horizons for Children’s very first Asian host program, we have the opportunity to bless the children of this orphanage in a very special way! We will be able to share the love of Christ by providing for the basic needs of children in this orphanage by sending home an extra suitcase stuffed with goodies.

And we can’t do it without your help!

Here is what we will need –

Suitcases & Shipping:

  • 14 rolling suitcases (25-27”) – about $35 each
  • 14 covered shipping expenses for suitcases – $70 each

Stuff to fill the Suitcases:

  • 140 packages of American pencils: They also use mechanical “fine” lead pencils and very “fine” ink pens here. Usually black. They need the “fine” point because of writing characters
  • Sewing needles, thread and buttons
  • Yarn, all colors, styles: to make things which they can sell to raise money
  • Books with DVDs for Conversational English would be helpful here. Elementary and beginner learning
