Longtime Shufu Judo member Hilaire Notewo is planning to relocate to Côte D’Ivoire (Ivory Coast), Africa in late November/December. He will be supporting judo programs, but equipment (esp. judo uniforms) are difficult to come by. Hilaire is looking for gently used judo gis and other equipment. Hilaire will also be visiting and donating goods to orphanages. Should you have gently used shoes, clothes for teenagers, youths, and toddlers, kindly make them available to Hilaire.
If you would like to donate to this effort, you can send your donation to the following address:
Hilaire Notewo
7401 New Hampshire Ave. #1003
Takoma Park, MD 20912
Or contact him via his email address: hilson79@gmail.com 202 945 3781.
