Any ideas...?

With an ever growing group of street children, a constant list of things to pay for, and only a couple of people helping out on a regular basis, I was wondering if anyone of you, readers of this blog, has an interesting idea on how we could raise some income.
You have no idea how hard it is to say NO, if someone asks for some flip flops after having walked in the rain and the mud all day.
It's even harder to see the guys on the list eat, while others are waiting for food that's not going to be given. Although I have to say that some of the street children share their plate with a buddy.
But still, there are many that could use a nice meal once a week.
We need sweaters, T-shirts, flip-flops, Aleve, ...
And money...
A bus ride to and from the hospital is $0.50.
If there is no money, the kids have to walk all the way (about 45 minutes)
And there are dozens of other little things that make their every day lives so much easier...

What can I say... they're counting on you!
