How can you help?

Buy a Gift, donate or sign up to be a regular supporter!

Looking for some unusual gift ideas? We can help!. Colin Cotterill has very kindly designed some cards and special stamps for us. These can be downloaded as a card after payment via paypal or in person at the visitor centre or in Sticky Fingers Restaurant in Vientiane!

If you would like to purchase multiple vouchers then please pay the total amount via paypal and then contact us directly. We can then send you the right amount of vouchers via PDF. Please contact us for ideas about making personalised gifts.

If you are buying gifts as a wedding present please let us know when you make the donation, we have special vouchers for people who have made this arrangement with us! We will email these to you on request.

For example... Many thanks to Emily and Grant for suggesting us as your wedding gift option! Congratulations to both of you from all of us here at COPE!.

Here are some things that we are in need of at present, please contact us for more details:

• Polypropylene sheets
• Teaching materials

We do not accept donated wheelchairs or old prostheses as we are trying to develop the skills to make these in-country and provide follow up and other related services. The only exception to this is sports wheelchairs as we cannot make them to the international standard needed.
