Good morning Lilu,

The childrens village is in Lefcosia. There is also an SOS youth centre in Girne.



You can either take your toys and clothes yourself, or call me on 0533 839 9122, or email me on flowerfairy68@hotmail,com , and I'll arrange for us to meet, or get them collected from you.

thankyou,

Hi flowerfairy and Lilli. thank you, My son is two so I would be looking for somewhere that has babies and toddlers. SOS in Girne has older children or do they have little ones too.

No Lilu, SOS in Girne is for the youths that have left the village.

The SOS village in Lefcosia have 13 houses with varying ages of children, as

does a 'normal' family home.

We, as a committee are mainly supporting the project families this year.

These families are all around the island. They are really very poor, some are without electricity and/or water. The idea is to try to keep these families together and prevent the children from going into the 'orphanage'

We try to raise money and needed items that are distributed to these families.

There are lots of quite a few babies and toddlers within these families, so your things will be greatfully accepted.

Hi flowerfairy



I know thi was posted some time ago, but i will be arriving in cyprus over the next 2 weeks and when my container arrives i have purchased many things for the outreach project from baby things to older children. I have tried to get together an assortment of summer and winter clothes. And also my friends have kindly donated some used items like new. Seeing as we have a large container coming there was plenty of room for more boxes so we decided to do this. I hope that these things can go to families in need. I have taken down your mobile number from the posting, is it still this number? I will call you when the container arrives and we can arrange to donate these things to you.



many thanks
