Sending balls to Karonga, Malawi

A friend of mine has been working in Malawi for quite some time. I asked her what I could send to help out and she said they needed soccer balls, volleyballs, and mustard. She said obtaining mustard there is quite difficult.

I am so excited because we went shopping and bought tons of balls and I am certain we looked comical as we were trying to carry them through the store. It brings me so much joy to know how much they will be enjoyed and provide some recreational fun for community. It's especially nice to know someone and be able to send things direct and know when they are received, as opposed to donating money somewhere and hoping it trickles down to the cause. I'm a firm believer in doing small things or what you can to bring happiness to others. It's amazing how much doing for others brings joy not only to the recipient but also the giver. It's powerful stuff. I wish I was able to do more volunteering myself, but it's really not so simple in Germany. The only thing I'm aware I can do is visit Americans that are in jail in Munich. While that may be a kind thing to do, I am not certain that's the crowd I need to get involved with.

If anyone has any ideas for me I'd love to hear them!
