flyer. If you have a friend with a child at that school get just the class to do a charity drive, it would be a good lesson on charity and you can take photo's if you go to an orphanage, the kids will love the follow up and that they have done something good for the world (don't forget to ask permission to take the photo's though). you can also ask for old jigsaw puzzles and kids toys. 2 weeks is plenty of time.
Or even just at work. Take a washing basket and leave by your office door. Tell everyone to have a cleanout with a mass email to everyone, I am sure you will have so much that you will have to go on a second trip... don't forget that winter gear is good for the people in places like Ubud where it is cooler at night. The Balinese are climatised so they do feel the cold up there. Don't forget the adults either. The workers in the paddies will appreciate them.
Stiletto's probably not a great idea. But it's funny watching the tourists trying to manouver in them on the Bali footpaths he he.
Finally... Don't forget you can donate old reading glasses... I have not done it yet as I have not changed my frames but I know the details are on Filo's website.
Enjoy the giving!
