If you are an adoptive parent coming to Haiti, we ask you to help us keep adoption costs down by donating one suitcase full of child care items to replace the ones used by your child while in the nursery. Baby lotion, shampoo, bar soap, powder, diapers, wipes, bibs, and small toys are some items that we use daily at the nursery. See our list of Items Currently Needed below for more suggestions.
You should also bring infant formula, diapers, lotion, shampoo, powder, diaper rash cream, scabies cream, clothing, bottles or cups, shoes, etc. for your child to use when you come to take your child home. Once your child is with you, GLA no longer provides these daily items.
To give a financial contribution directly to the GLA Ministry, please visit our Financial Help page - we now support on-line donations through PayPal!
General donations can be sent to:
God's Lttlest Angels
2283 A Waynoka Road
Colorado Springs, CO 80915
Our staff in Colorado will ensure that any items received are sent to GLA at the earliest opportunity.
