Buy Local
Many of the items on the needs list can be purchased locally. Currently, the children are in urgent need of desks as the ones they are currently using are in bad condition. The children also need gumboots as many children have to walk long distances in the mud to get to school. If you are interested in purchasing desks or gumboots locally, please contact comercial@ptpmundomaya.com and they will help you make the appropriate arrangements.
