An OTBKB reader wrote in with the following request:

My Djembe drumming teacher is from Senegal and he is interested in providing for the children and adults of his community there.

He is requesting donations of clothing, household items, electronics, and toys, etc. that he would be able to ship back to Africa to help his community.

If you are interested, contact the Keur Djembe African Drum Shop to arrange a drop off at the store. The shop is located at 568A Union Street at Third Avenue. The phone number is 718-522-7324. www.keurdjembe.com
