Donation Drop Off...

Where: Kirkland Junior High

What: Donations for the Udon Thani Orphanage. See items listed above.

Also, we need "jumbo size suitcases" which will be left in Thailand. The airline is providing free freight for all donated items to the orphanage and the suitcases will be used to transport these items. Awesome!
