Help Woodside Sanctuary by donating cleaning supplies, and toiletry items for children and adults with intellectual disabilities

Here's a little more info about this opportunity...

Woodside Sanctuary provides full-time residential care to 85 children and adults with profound intellectual disabilities, 23 of whom are either orphaned, abandoned, or come from disadvantaged families, for whom Woodside covers the full cost of their care. Toiletries are a high monthly cost for Woodside, as we need items for all 85 of our residents. Needed items include: toothpaste, toothbrushes, face cloths, shampoo, Vaseline, Roll On (men and ladies), disposable shavers and razors, shaving foam, aqueous cream, disposable nappies for adults (medium, large, and X-large), tissues (boxes), liquid hand soap, etc. Woodside's buildings are quite large, and it is imperative that we keep them hygienically clean at all times. Needed cleaning items include: laundry trolleys/crate cages, plastic gloves and aprons, surgical masks, washing pegs, buckets for wet laundry, laundry soap, permabrite, xtraded, microbac, odour control, mop sticks, mop heads, small mops, rubber gloves, spraybright, polish, microclean, microsan, a feather duster, spray bottles (white), spray bottles (assorted colours), pink soap (special antibacterial hand soap), and Biocide. The donation of toiletries, nappies, and cleaning supplies would greatly assist us in bringing down our operational overheads and thus ensure the continuation of our sanctuary, enabling us to continue to provide our much-needed services to some of the most vulnerable and marginalised in our society.
