Help Youth Potential South Africa - YOUPSA by donating colouring books and coloured pencils for rural children to experience healing, creativity & joy
Here's a little more info about this opportunity...
Children need creativity, joy and hope! The vast majority of rural children do not have access to paper, colouring supplies, arts materials, books, computers, internet, toys, or any educational materials. We would like to ask you to help us provide our children with colouring books and coloured pencils (or vouchers for this). This will give them lifesaving creative stimulation, comfort and joy. As you might know from your personal experience, art helps you to enter a state of concentration where distractions and worries disappear. Art is very calming for our children, who have a lot of trauma in their daily environment, like broken homes, violence, alcohol and drug abuse. For them, art is also a way to become whole and heal. Please donate. Thank You!

- 2. When meeting one of your contacts offline for the first time, always be sure to arrange to meet in a public place.
- 3. Make sure that you are not left alone with someone that you have never met before.
