Have you ever been preparing for a trip and wondered if there was something you could take along to give to an individual or organization  to make someone's life a little better?  You have the desire to help but you're not quite sure how.  Well, thanks to expert packer Rebecca Rothney, you now have a place to go for ideas and advice before starting your journey.  Pack for a Purpose is a new website that helps you make a difference in the lives of children around the world.
When visiting the site, not only will you see lists of suggested donations, but also learn how to properly pack them!  When travelers select Yachana as their destination they will see an up-to-date list of things needed at the Colegio.  We are honored to be the first destination in South America selected to participate in this wonderful new project!
