[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Spend money on local products, do not bring your stuff. [/quote] This. Take your empty suitcase and fill it with local products and give them as gifts when you get home.[/quote] I'm the PP – that's exactly what we did! Plus, every safari company has a foundation and ties to the local communities – it is a much better way to contribute. Our safari had a limit on the number of bags and had firm size/style requirements – so it would have been impossible to bring anything extra anyway. But I worked in development in the US, I know the answer is always "give money." Giving stuff is fine if it meets an organization's specific needs, but money is always the best choice.[/quote]
