We couldn't do it without you. Thank you to these supporters of CharityBegins.org who donated their time, money, and supplies to our organization.
Freelance Designer - Special thanks to our very generous and talented designer from Holland, Ozkan, who created our new mascot and logo.
The Museum of Natural History - Thank you for the donation of toothpaste which swifly moved out of our warehouse and is being delivered, along with donated toothbrushes and other essentials, to Shelter Don Bosco in Mumbai.
Holiday Donations - Thank you to the numerous invididuals who donated money to Charity Begins during the holiday season. Since all deliveries are via vacationers, business travelers, backpackers, and other independent travelers, the cost of shipping is eliminated and 100% of every dollar goes to helping people living in poverty. THANK YOU!
Soles4Souls.org - Soles4Souls launched the idea of CharityBegins.org by offering to donate shoes to the first Charity Begins trip to Peru, and then continued to support our initiatives with donations for other travellers. Soles4Souls.org has now donated 800 pairs of shoes to CharityBegins.org! This bulk donation allows us to shorten our turn-around time for travellers and help more people around the world. Thanks you Soles4Souls for you generosity!
The New York Public Library - Thanks to the New York Public Library (Columbus Branch in New York City) we now have a supply of children's books and foreign language books ready for distribution.
The Cottage, Monroe, NY - The Cottage has kindly donated lightly used children's clothes to CharityBegins.org. These clothes have been earmarked for an upcoming trip to Haiti, but the stockpile keeps growing. With more travellers calling us every day - not a single piece of clothing will go unused. Thank you "The Cottage"!
School Supply Donations - Thank you to the numerous individuals who have ordered supplies from our wish list. These school supplies are always well received and allow students in developing countries to have the gift of education.
And, a heartfelt THANK YOU to all of the travelers who have contacted Charity Begins and helped by making deliveries to developing countries.
Thank you to these amazing supporters who have embraced the concept of CharityBegins.org and have donated their time and resources to helping make the world a better place.
