How to Help

We are growing a network called ‘friends of Saara Nilla’ who we hope, will pledge their interest and a little of their valuable time to us. We have also started a collection for used
equipment and furnishings to set up and run the kitchen and library.
“There is no such thing as waste, just useful stuff in the wrong place”
