Kids' & small adult size clothes & shoes for our clothing bazaar fundraisers
Some suggestions: 
Things that sell well are light-to-medium weight clothing for babies, children, teens and small adults sizes (XS, S or M-- anything larger is generally too big for locals). Think summer or spring clothes. Sneakers, sandals, & flip-flops are also popular items. Please don't feel the need to go out and buy new clothes, pick stuff up at your local thrift store if you must, or canvas your neighbors for their used clothes-- help recycle clothing and help Hekab Be!

School/Office supplies:
--Water based/finger paints in large bottles (1 liter if possible): primary colors plus black & white
