Collecting gifts to take to China

We need to bring small gifts for the people that we want to thank while we're in China (the nannies, officials, guides, translators, drivers, etc.).

For the rest of September, we'll be collecting donations in the forms of

small lotions (example: bath and body works travel sizes),

small vitamin bottles (fish oil preferably),

and small boxes of nice chocolates (like Lindt-Lindor, Godiva, Ghirardelli).




Any gifts can be dropped off at our home or church or please leave a comment on this post or facebook for me so I can arrange to pick them up.  

If you would like to give directly to Sammy's orphanage, we will have the opportunity once we meet the orphanage director.  The director could say they need things like toys or sweaters or even something like a washer/dryer.   We will then be able to go shopping and pick up the things the orphanage is needing the most with whatever money we bring for that donation.  Thank you for considering helping us with this special gift.  I know it will be very hard for us to visit Sammy's orphanage knowing we get to take him home with us but are leaving all the rest of those sweet faces behind.
