We have the opportunity to bring stuff down with a group in August from the States... so here is your chance to buy us a little something that we need in the office. If you’re interested in helping us purchase these things, please write to me at agriffin@hcjb.org.ec or give on line at www.hcjb.org.uk and put in the memo line ‘leon’ and what the money is for.
· Printer cartridges HP 60 @£16/$26 a pair (they are double the price in Ecuador)
· Comfortable Therm-a-Rest mattress for Alfredo £65/$100
· Replacement Filter cartridges for katadyn vario multiflow water filter @£ 18/$30 each (this is the water filter we use when we are in the jungle)
· 2 wide-mouth water bottles (Nalgene) that fit on to the Katadyn filter @£10 /$16 each
· External hard-drive for office file back-up and ‘caselogic’ case @£65/$100
