How to help

Algerian Action is a small project which offers a little help to those living in Algeria by providing them with essentials and a few treats.

 There are several ways that you could participate- 

• donate clothing- Clothing is given to babies, children and teens so we would be grateful for any clothing in sizes 0-16 years.  Shoes are great too! Items may be hand-crafted, pre-loved or new but they must be in clean, undamaged condition.

• Donate toys / craft materials / school supplies- It’s nice to be able to give a child something to play with or some pencils, paper and stickers to get creative with.  All types of toys and crafty stuff is welcome and again things can be new, preloved or handmade.
•  Make a monetary contribution- All of the people involved with the project give their time and skills freely so fortunately there are no staffing costs however, we do still need to get the stuff to those in need and shipping costs can get expensive.  In addition although we try to get everything donated sometimes we do need to buy things for the families which we help – a new roof for example. So if you would like to donate cash it would be very much appreciated.  Cheques should be made out to ‘Algerian Action’
• Give a square- Small squares make big blankets! squares can be any colour or size, knitted or crocheted  All are welcome.
• Attend one of our fundraising workshops or events. All money raised will help fund the work of the project.
• Hold your own fundraising event- Coffee mornings, races, car boot sales the possibilities are endless.

 

Please contact me for details of where to send donations.  Items may be sent to an address in the UK or Algeria, which ever you prefer. 

Alternatively if you would like to help by distributing items, holding a fundraiser, promoting the project please get in touch.
