Helping Hands Abu Dhabi
 
To add to what seems to be a healthy rivalry, we're in the process of setting up an Abu Dhabi branch of this erstwhile charidee..

http://www.thenational.ae/article/20...856544976/1297

We're starting slowly, despite the ace media coverage, but are definitely accepting donations! There are two of us actively invlolved at the moment, one on the island and one off. Please, please PM me if you're interested in helping out.

ps i'm not Blue Cat in disguise but your worst nightmare - another donation seeking bird!

Congratulations!! was just on the phone to Elle and she was telling me about the AD Branch. Try and get into the women's groups, I went to a great coffee morning here today and came back 1500 dhs better for HH.

Thank you!! No doubt we'll meet over a coffee ourselves..

AD woman has been a great source of volunteers, now we just need to get some more stuff to give out!

(1500dhs from a coffee morning is aces!)

OK - I have 4 cartons of books and toys (bought every unsold item from another Helping Hands Sale). A very good collection - and I would be more than happy to donate it again! Please let me know:)
