New Fighting in the Congo
More rebel fighting has erupted in the Congo (DRC) since August 2008. This is catastrophic to the region and has displaced more and more people. Refugee camps are struggling with the challenge of housing at least 250,000 people.
There are many news reports of the orphaned children being left by this fighting which is just heartbreaking. The orphans currently being cared for in the orphanage on the island of Idgwi are safe from the fighting and that is why the orphanage was built on the island. The island is far enough from the mainland and has never experienced the rebel fighting. But the need for homes for the newly orphaned is always an evolving need. The orphanage is always in need of help and donations to keep the current children fed, healthy and provide them with medical care and education. The new strains of trying to take in any new orphans will also depend on donations and funds to support them and provide shelter for them. If you would like to know more about how to donate to the orphanage for their current orphans and to help with future orphans then please go to their website and donate if you can. Their organization is called International Children's Care and if you can help I am sure it will be greatly appreciated. If you would like to read more about the orphan village and its projects here is a link directly to that.
****Due to all this new rebel unrest the plans for visiting the Congo to deliver the Crocs has been postponed until early 2009 as soon as the rebel fighting subsides enough to allow for a safe trip to the orphanage. The team has to travel through the war torn area to get to the Island.

Crocs for Orphan Tots Charity Event Birthday!
I received a message on facebook from a Mary Jo and here is what it said:
"Just wanted to touch base with you and thank you for your efforts to bring crocs to orphan tots.
My daughter and her friend, 13 and 14 years old, are having a combined birthday party this Friday evening and have selected Crocs for Orphan Tots as their charity recipient.
We are having 24 girls who are bringing crocs instead of presents. I hope we get a good supply for your group."
I thought it was such a unique idea and such great a way to allow these children attending the party to get involved in projects that make them connect to our global community in a very personal way.
I have since gotten an update:
"The girls had their party Friday night. It was quite fun, and they all brought crocs -- we have 55 pairs to donate! We have new, gently used, large, small, a little bit of everything."
I would love to share more Croc collection stories. So if you don't mind sharing yours, please contact me. I would love to share it with others that are helping out.

Pictures of your kids playing in their Crocs!
I would love to see and post pictures of you or your children wearing their Crocs this summer. If you have pictures in your Crocs and don't mind sharing them just email me the picture and I would love to share it on this blog. No names will be included unless you would like them to be. You can email me at twizzledesigns [at] msn.com and I will share them.
Have a great summer!
Attention all Parents!
Summer has arrived and the heat is on. I know many of you have children wearing Crocs this summer. At the end of summer when those Crocs have had a lot of use remeber that they can then be donated to our project and they can bring year round use to a child in need in the Congo, Africa. So keep us in mind and at the end of summer please drop them off or send them to this project and they will go directly to a child in need of shoe in the Congo. For drop off locations please see this link and if there are no drop off locations near you and you would like to be a drop off location just leave a comment on this posting or comment on the facebook group wall. Remember that if you cannot afford to help with the shipping of the crocs just contact us and we will help with shipping.

Tobique Valley Exceeds All Expectations!!
The students and faculty of Tobique Valley Middle School and High School have exceeded all expectations in their contribution for the Crocs for Orphan Tots Project. Spearheaded by two teachers Tara Legace and Karen Elliott, the 300 students have collected 411 pair of crocs in the past four weeks!!!

A Rainbow of Crocs
After Mrs. Legace became aware of the Crocs For Orphan Tots Project she unleashed her imagination and her creativity and with great enthusiasm she told her students about the project. Karen Elliott, who teaches at the High School did the same and over a period of four weeks the students of TVMHS collected crocs with enthusiasm. And what a collection they made!!
Crocs Line The Bleachers in the Gym
PROLASA Canada and Crocs For Orphan Tots want to sincerely thank everyone at Tobique Valley Middle and High School who was involved with the project. You exceeded all expectations! We will take these shoes to the Island of Idjwi in the Democratic Republic of Congo and we will distribute them to the children at the Patmos Children's Village and to students at some of the surrounding schools. We want you to know that you have made a HUGE difference in the live of many children. Thanks.
Interest in their Congolese counterparts grew as the project gathered momentum. Dr. Wecker, Daniel and Melissa were invited to the school and the students had a plethora of questions about life in Congo and about the needs for shoes. Today, all the students of both the High School and the Middle School gathered in the gym as the Crocs that they had collected were presented to PROLASA Canada. They will be taken to Congo in December.

200 Crocs!
Well I submitted a donation request fro 200 Crocs to SolesUnited a few months ago. They are a foundation that donates Crocs to people in need around the world.
I finally received the Crocs. 200 pairs arrived at my Brother's house in Massachusetts (my Dad flies out from Boston when traveling to Africa so we ship everything there to store until the next trip).
I submitted paperwork and then did an interview with SolesUnited in order to get the donation and I cannot wait to see pictures of when they arrive on the island. These shoes will be such a blessing to these children for years to come.
Thanks Crocs and SolesUnited.
Our Crocs Project on Facebook
Well this is how projects like this became an amazing success. Great people like Nina get involved and share their ideas and enthusiasm to get more individuals working on this. Yay!!!! I cannot say thanks enough to those of you willing to help.
Nina heard about the project from her 16 y/o daughter who attended an assembly where my Dad and my sister did a presentation about the Crocs for Orphan Tots project. She then started a Facebook group for this project. Such a great idea. I just joined the group and I hope you will too. So here is the link to join.
Keep up the good work Nina.

Plaster Rock on Board!
x
I just got off the phone with my Dad ( Dr. Barry). He just finished a school assembly meeting at the middle school in town. He said there were 200 or more children there and they were all excited about the project. They got to ask questions about the children in Africa and about the project. In the past 7 days they have collected over 70 crocs and that is just the beginning. This is so exciting. It is one of those things that keeps on surprising me the enthusiasm that this project is met with. Having shoes is one of those simple things we take for granted here in the western world and yet for many it is a struggle to find food much less shoes. These children in the D. R. Congo will be so blessed with a pair of crocs.

Tunga penetrans Infection
On our blog entry of 2008 April 23, we showed photos of a skin disorder which is caused by not wearing shoes. We have now correctly identified this disease. It is an infection of sand fleas called Tunga penetrans which affects the feet of those who do not wear shoes. The female flea burrows under the skin and forms a small, pea-sized cyst. When it gets mature, it causes some irritation of the skin. The french word for it is "chique".

Plaster Rock Pharmasave Helps Out
Yesterday I received a call from Norris McMillan at the Plaster Rock Pharmasave to say that they had 45 pair of "Daws" which are Croc-like shoes, that they were going to donate to Crocs For Orphan Tots! Today we headed down to the store and picked them up. What a great help for the children on the Island of Idjwi in the Democratic Republic of Congo!!! Thanks Norris and a big thanks to all of your staff as well.
A Shout Out to Plaster Rock Schools
Plaster Rock, New Brunswick is my hometown in Canada. My parents moved there when I was 13. I have just heard that the high school and middle school in Plaster Rock have started helping with this project. Yay!!! and thanks so much!
If you are from Plaster Rock area and are viewing this blog feel free to leave a comment on this post. It is so nice to hear you all are helping. These children in the Congo will be so blessed by something as simple as a pair of shoes.

Thanks Again Kim and Emily!
Thanks again Kim and Emily for your first pair of crocs you donated. They are still serving the same child more than a year latter. The next few pairs that you donated this year have finally arrived and are keeping another child or two safe from diseases and foot injuries as well. Due to the delay in the luggage arrival I do not have any pictures of them being given out but we are hoping to get some pictures sometime soon but rest assured they did arrive.
Thought you would enjoy seeing an updated picture of the child who received the original red pair of crocs. He has grown in the past year but his crocs are his prized possession and my Dad said he never lets them out of his sight. They have nick named him "Kermit" and you can see his most recent pictures (see above).

Rural School on Idjwi Shows Need for Crocs!
Although the luggage was delayed in arriving until we were leaving it became very apparent to me as a first time visitor to the island of Idjwi, how important Croc-like sandals were to the children. I spent my week on the island visiting projects and institutions in the local villages around the Patmos Children's Village but it was when I toured the local primary schools that I really became aware of the need for Crocs for the tots.
The children in the picture above were from a local village school. The classrooms had no windows, no lights, no lamps. There were no chairs or desks so stones had been carried in by the children to sit upon. They propped the few scarce note books and pencil nubins on their knees and there were so many children in the classroom that it was shoulder to shoulder and knee to back. The only free space was right by the door as can be seen in the picture. The teacher was even packed in with no moving space.
What really caught my attention though was the muddy floor. It was dry outside, but the floor inside was covered in mud puddles. And all that kept the children from sitting in it were the stones that they were sitting upon.
And so they studied balancing on small stones, in a building with no windows, at maximum capacity and sitting in the mud - because the children are barefoot.
Thank you to all who have donated and gathered crocs! I hope this makes you realize that the crocs are not just a fashion statement- they are a health necessity. You are changing lives. We will be posting pictures of the orphans with the crocs you sent as soon as possible.

Water puddles on the school floor
Desire, the project developer, quickly explained that they carried water from the lake to pour on the floor because there is a bug he called "chique" which would in-bed itself in the bare feet from the dry ground inside buildings.And so they studied balancing on small stones, in a building with no windows, at maximum capacity and sitting in the mud - because the children are barefoot.
Here are the children sitting on their stones and bricks on a mud floor!
Below is a picture of the foot of a local villager who walked to our village in order to get medical advice on the "chique" that had buried into his feet from living bare foot, on a dry floor, without washing.Thank you to all who have donated and gathered crocs!

Luggage Arrives!
Well I do not have any details but I have gotten word that the luggage arrived but just as the team was leaving to come home. I am sure we will get a full update soon.

No Luggage!
Well the flight from Johannesburg to Kigali was canceled so they had to wait an fly out the next day on another flight to Kigali. When they arrived none of their luggage had made it with them. That includes the Crocs. It is very hard to get communication back and forth from Dad right now as there are few phone lines or communication period. The last we heard was this update about the lost luggage. Please send positive thoughts and prayers that the crocs and the rest of the luggage and supplies will arrive sooner rather than latter. I will let you all know any updates as they trickle in.

We're in Johannesburg
When we got to Logan International Airport in Boston we hoped and prayed that we would be able to check our baggage all the way to Kigali so as to avoid the problems that would occur if we had to pick the bags up in Johannesburg and then re-check them to Kigali tomorrow. The agent at the Delta counter was SO VERY helpful and interested in the Crocs For Orphan Tots project. She not only checked our bags all the way to Kigali but she also took down the blogsite address and said that she would look it up. If you are reading this, we just want you to know how much we appreciate your friendly interest and your help. What a difference that has made to our project! Thanks for your help.
Every bit of assistance, every pair of crocs helps make this project a success!
The flight to Johannesburg went well--just l o n g! But we are in J'Burg and waiting for our flight to Kigali tomorrow.

Redistribution Ariel's Way!
Ariel is a dear friend and roomate of my Sister Melissa's when she lived in England for college. She has also become a great friend to our entire family and is such a warm loving person. She heard about our project from Melissa and quickly sprang into action. Here is a little about her and how she has managed to help out even being a grad student doesn't stop her.
" A bit about me..grad student at Univ of Miami--spanish language journalism track ("periodismo"). GO CANES! Hmm...some things I love...God, my family, dogs, the arts, writing letters, cooking, kicking back with a good book (note: book, not TEXTbook), playing listening and singing--anything music related (just ask melissa--i can be pretty goofy about it. at newbold I was constantly begging and working to borrow a guitar--even used to walk with a pik in my wallet), volunteering where I'm needed... and traveling when I can afford it! <
I think the crocs project is easy for people to strive towards because everyone knows someone with kids who will outgrow or have outgrown their crocs. Or you know someone who knows someone... For our personal donation, our family decided to scale back on Christmas and take on a couple missions projects instead. (If we gave presents, they were homemade). So some of the extra cash went towards some pairs of crocs for the kids.
As for a student budget..well yes, grad students typically don't have a lot of spending cash, but I personally found ways to scale back too. Small & simple things can offer a lot for donations. For example, instead of occasionally buying Papa Johns, I'd go buy a generic supermarket pizza, and the 10 bucks you save, you can go buy two pairs of imitation crocs from Target or Walmart. The food actually tastes better when you know you're making a contribution to something important. I don't go to Blockbuster or movies, just wait for the library to get the DVD... the 7 or 10 bucks there can go for a donation also.
So I haven't made revolutionary changes to my lifestyle--just a little "redistribution". Also any spare change I collect I've been keeping in a jar and when it fills up I'll count it out and donate it also(I call that one "Change for crocs" ;) still in progress....might be more exciting if I had a smaller jar that filled up faster!) I hope that some of the other students I've asked will also find creative ways to contribute as well.
This pic is me with my poodlemix Perrie (formerly a scrawny stray, yet remarkably photogenic) and some of the crocs we collected. (Perrie has a habit of crawling into a lap if its within reach--so this picture without her was not an option) The other pic is my daddy, Roy, with the last set of crocs on the day we went to post them. I have a picture of the lady at UPS too, who boxed them (for free!! Last time the manager said she charged extra for that. :P) and asked all kinds of questions. She thinks its super and wants to know if there's a need for clothing as well."
Ariel is truly an inspiring giver. You do not have to be rich to enjoy helping others and although Ariel is modest and feels that her changes to her lifestyle aren't "revolutionary" but are instead "redistribution" I think that she is REVOLUTIONARY!!!! and just think if we all did a little "redistribution" in our own lifestyles we are truly going to change the world and ourselves in the process.

Planes, Boats and Automobiles!
The journey from New Brunswick to the Democratic Republic of Congo is a long one. Here is our travel itinerary:
On Tuesday morning, April 1 we will load up all the Crocs that have been collected in Canada will be loaded into our car and we will drive 7 hours to Clinton, Massachusetts where all the Crocs collected in the USA have been collecting. These too will be loaded up and on Wednesday morning, April 2, we will drive the hour to Logan International Airport in Boston where we will get on a plane to Atlanta, Georgia. In Atlanta we will have a 2 hour transit after which we will board a plane for a 19 hour flight to Johannesburg, South Africa--we board the plane at 15h45 on Wednesday afternoon in Atlanta and we arrive in Johannesburg at 16h45 on Thursday! We will spend the night in Johannesburg and then on Friday afternoon we leave for a 5 hour flight to Kigali, Rwanda. We will spend a day in Kigali before driving 4 hours across the mountains of Rwanda to the city of Gisenyi on the north end of Lake Kivu.
On the way we will cross the Nile--Congo continental divide at an elevation of 2800 m (9240 feet).
In Gisenyi we arrive at the border with the Democratic Republic of Congo. The cities of Gisenyi, Rwanda and Goma, DR Congo are dominated by Mt. Nyiragongo one of the world's most active volcanoes.
After crossing the border into Congo we will take a boat for four hours across Lake Kivu to the Patmos Children's Village on the island of Idjwi.
We will arrive at the Children's Village 5 days after we left home and after 43 hours of travel!! We will have left the snow of New Brunswick for the tropical quietude of the Island of Idjwi in beautiful Lake Kivu. Yes it is a long ways from New Brunswick to Congo!!!

Cindy's Wednesday Night Prayer Group
Cindy Conner is the school secretary at Chinook Elementary School here in Vancouver, Washington. She and her Wednesday night prayer group collected 29 pairs of croc shoes. I walked over to the school with DeLuca in a stroller and I had a few bags to carry the shoes home in. I got there and the bin at the school was so full I wasn't sure how I would carry them all
home. I had three heaping bags full of crocs and I stashed some in the carrier basket under the stroller. It was a juggling act to get home but all for such a great cause. Wow, I cannot thank everyone who has taken this cause to their hearts and been so generous. These orphans will be greatly blessed when they get these croc shoes in a few weeks. I will post pictures of the crocs arriving in the Congo as soon as I get them.
How Many Collected?
Thank-you Sandra
Sandra Paine of Red Rapids, New Brunswick has been collecting Crocs for the children in the Democratic Republic of Congo for several weeks now. She has collected 24 pairs of Crocs! Thank-you very much Sandra!
"I have become involved with gathering Crocs through knowing Dr. Wecker. This is a project that will provide a basic necessity to children who have nothing while giving me a lot of
pleasure. Convincing people to donate is half of the fun. There must be lots of Crocs that are outgrown and yet not worn out--I just have to find them! Help has come from my friends who are members of our square dance club. Thanks guys!!!! I just love helping children. To see their smiling faces is all the thanks anyone needs."
--Sandra Paine
When we get back from Congo in a few weeks, we will have some photos for you Sandra of many smiling faces wearing Crocs on their feet!!! Thank-you Sandra.

More Crocs!
Here comes some more croc shoes!
Chinook Elementary School has collected 9 pairs in the past few weeks. I walked over there with DeLuca (see Picture above) and picked up the collected crocs and brought them home. I will ship them to my brother in Boston who will store them for a few weeks. My Dad will fly out from Boston and so he will pick them up and take them over to the orphans on April 2nd. They are going to be so excited to get these shoes. You have no idea! These children have never had anything in their life and a pair of shoes even though it is important is just a luxury that they have never had until now.
THANK YOU CHINOOK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
While I was there the school secretary told me she had collected 14 or more pairs and they were at home so she will bring them in next week and I will pick them up and mail them then. So there are more on the way.

Thank you Glenda
Glenda (my Dad's cousin) in British Columbia, Canada has gotten involved in this project. She has been very generous and just sent 17 pairs of Crocs to my Dad so he can take them over in April. Here is a little about how she went about helping with our project:
"My mom and I take my house bound auntie, for lunch once a week. She loves to have something to look forward too and we enjoy spending some time with her. Last week, I told my mom and my auntie that I wanted to send some Crocs to Barry Wecker's ( my cousin) project for the children in Africa. They both quickly replied that they would like to help too. What fun it was to stop in at a local store and pick out some fun colours and sizes of the shoes. Both women love to help out with mission projects and, having been teachers in their working years, love to see children happy!"
Thanks again Esther, Beth and Glenda!

Thanks Kim
When I first started this project I posted some ads on craigslist asking for any donations of crocs anyone could spare and the first response I got was from Kim. She donated the little red crocs seen here on this orphans stuffed animal. Here is a little about Kim and her daughter:
“I found out about Crocs for Orphan Tots on Craigslist. My daughter had outgrown a pair of her crocs and being a social worker, I always look for ways to help others out. After her first pair was sent over, a picture of them on a beloved stuffed animal of a tot showed up on the blog. My daughter, Emily was so excited about it, that she decided to have her other pairs of crocs sent over too! I enjoy the idea of helping others and it allows my daughter to learn the same value.”
Above you can see pictures of her daughter enjoying her Crocs. Isn't she adorable!
