hildegard- I can help you w/ #65 and #66
I'm an American living in a foreign country and you can write me.

For #66.. if you want to change Iraq to Afghanistan-- I have an address that you can use. They take donated clothing, hats, shoes, socks, gloves, etc.. for children of all ages and adults. The military personnel donate the items that they receive to the refugee camps, to the street kids, schools, hospitals, or orphanages.

Okay I have 75 things I think. I was working on them until about 330 am so some of them are likely incoherent...lol. Working on it though.
