Hey fellow Steemians. I am reaching out for some help because shipping overseas is expensive. I been home schooling for years and I have some things we no longer need or I have more than one of the item (I have no clue how I accumulate what I do but I do). I been following @azizbd for a couple of months now and have been supporting his school program @schoolforsdg4 which provides education to children who normally would be working instead of getting an education. Child labor is still going on in many parts of the world, and people like @azizbd are making the world a better place.
Each week or so I been trying to send a donation to the @schoolforsdg4 for their fruit program. We are about to move and I am starting to go through things to give away. I wish I could ship them all my books I am purging but those are way to expensive to ship. But I do have some things I think are worth shipping to @azizbd for @schoolforsdg4. Science equipment. It isn't much a microscope, some slides, magnets and other stuff to experiment with. All in all it is about $200 or so worth of equipment and not a lot to have to share with 50 + students but I figure having at least something for the sciences is better than nothing. So I am hoping you guys can help.
How can you help by upvoting this post, all the money raised will go to helping pay for the shipping costs, if all the money is raised for the shipping costs then the excess will be donated to @schoolforsdg4 for their fruit program.
Here is what I would like to send to the students at School for SDG4

I was also going to include some samples of rocks, sand and dirt, but those items even though they are packaged small weigh over 14 lbs so I took them out. I figure they can collect local samples to look under the microscope with.
Here is a picture of the items I took out. Though I did leave the beans and the black rubber sample in it, because they are both light weight.
Taking those items out of the box leaves me with a box just under 12 lbs. Here is a screen shot of what it cost to ship a 12 lb package to Bangladesh
I am going to ship the cheapest way to ship. And am hoping to raise at least half the shipping cost through this post, but I would be thrilled to see all of it raised and then a little to go to the fruit fund.
If you would like to donate directly to the shipping of this package. Send your donation to @tecnosgirl with a memo for shipping package for SDG4 or something to that effect. Thanks in advance for your support. And though I normally refrain from asking for upvote and resteems in my posts. I am gonna ask you to please upvote this post and resteem it, because even the small penny adds up and a bunch of pennies can make a huge impact.
These are the some of the kids your support helps

Once again thank you in advance for your support in this crowdfunding campaign to ship Science materials to the kids @schoolforsdg4
