90 school kits for Project Philippines (Distribution #94)

Today I spent sorting and packing school supplies of exercise books, pens and pencils which will be included in the dress distribution #94 for school-aged kids in the Philippines as part of my Education without borders project for 2015. These items will be included in the first batch of parcels that I am sending to the Philippines and scheduled for pick-up tomorrow.

Thank you to Jayne Hogan, Patricia Burton, Maureen O'Brien, the two Bettys' Betty Barrett and Betty Paull and Dress A Girl Australia for making these school kits possible.
