Project Child Wish List

Thank you for reading this list. 

Disclaimer: We want to be honest with our donors and inform you that due to the high volume of clothes, shoes and toys that we receive, Project Child keeps  approximately 50 percent, shares 25 percent with the needy or other organizations, and sells 25 percent to raise funds for Casa de Luz. Also, if we receive an excess of a particular item not listed below which is too much for our own use, we will always consider first giving to the needy outside of our children's home, and as a last alternative, sell the item.  Often times cash funds are not available to pay bills and buy what we need, and we will sell some items to raise badly needed funds.  We will never sell clothing, shoes, and toys that the children or the home is needing.  If you have any questions, please contact us.
