I just read about this post on Parent Hacks. If you want to donate some toys to Iraqi children, here's what you can do -- as I quoted from the post:
Edmay Mayers is coming home after a long tour in Iraq with the US Army Corps of Engineers.

Natalie is an archaeologist from Montana, who also worked to help people in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. I've heard from them both, and they are ready and excited to continue Edmay's work. So keep those gently-used toys coming, and keep spreading the word!

USACE-GRS
APO-AE
09331
Another option Edmay suggested: Beanies for Baghdad. Donna Ward of Beanies for Baghdad has invited anyone to send donations to her organization as well, and to contact her with any questions (
