Donations in kind

Several times a year we have the possibility to send donations in kind to AMPO in Burkina Faso.
Since processing and transport incur costs, we try to ensure that donations in kind are appropriate to the needs. Please donate only the goods listed below.
Each package should be properly and securely packed and marked on the outside with a completed list of contents (see download). Donations in kind may be sent direct to the container store. Please contact us for the required delivery information (times and access).
We also welcome financial support for transport costs to Burkina Faso.
