A really great way to help us out is to collect together a bunch of clothes (new or second hand), books, toys, pencils... etc. and then bundel them up in a parcel and send them out to us. Sometimes this can be a little expensive for people so perhaps you could try getting together with a group of friends or colleagues. Search around different courier services as some are vastly cheaper than others.
Over the years we have recieved plenty of different things in the post, from the ordinary (shoes, watches, clothes) to the extraordinary (a box of honey, coffee plungers, hot water bottles). There is nothing we cant use!
The Indian Postal System is not the most reliable and sometimes package "accidentally get opened" and items sometimes "fall out and go missing" because of this we recommend that people wrap up their parcels with cello-tape or ductape so that they can not easily open. One of the best packaging methods for soft items like clothing/shoes/toys is to use a plastic sack (the type that farmers use for grain/farming products). These sacks are light, tough and also reasonably water proof.
