We would like to show you some examples of the things AMPO has received as donations. There were hundreds of boxes packed with love with hand-knitted blankets, matinee jackets for children, toys and even handcream to soothe the hands of the hard-working cooks.

Not to mention, medical supplies, glasses, orthoses, wheelchairs, etc.

Lots of things that show the amount of thought that has gone into the donations.

Thank you so much!

However ...

The fact is that one of our facilities is a safe house for women. Here young women find protection from prostitution, HIV-AIDS, they are offered counselling and are informed about family planning.

And so the staff were perplexed and rather embarrassed to find erotic underwear and high-heeled shoes in some of the boxes, yet again.

Once more we must urge you not to include such articles in your donations!

For us this is an absolute no-no and we are sure you appreciate why.

One donor probably meant well, but here diving goggles are not an absolute must.
