Lots of thanks to Aurelie Boursier and Nicolas Gandon who brought a lot of stuffs for donation at VIN, although they are here for women empowerment and construction work. They bought most of the items for children. The items mostly included toys, baby clothes, stationery items, baby wipes, diapers, medical kits, toiletries, etc. The children in most of the urban areas lack basic necessities and VIN has been providing these products for the better lives of the children.
