Hallo all

With people's fundraising and publicity drives paying off, there will hopefully
soon be more people with the same problem as Melissa (in the USA), who's
contacted us to say that she has collected toys etc to send to Albania, but now
has run out of storage possibility for them.

We urgently need to work on both
- storage facilities
- transport possibilities

There are people working on this, but as yet no results that I've heard of.

We have been trying to foolow up a possibility of having some italian volunteers operate a storage space in Rome, which would be very convenient as a clearing house, but this is not getting anywhere fast.

So for the moment we need to hang onto things as locally as possible until some tansport direct to tthe Balkans is arranged.

Hoping that someone has an answer

Krayg

Mir sada,
