Dear all,
I hope this message finds you well. As you may know, our charity DrosAfrica (www.drosafrica.org<http://www.drosafrica.org/>) is working to advance African research, in part by setting up a connected network of Drosophila labs. To support these goals, we are reaching out to request donations of equipment, consumables, and surplus items. We are happy to receive second-hand/surplus/opened/ or leftover items in good working condition, including partially used consumables or older models.

Please feel free to forward this message to others in your network who may be able to help.

Please see attached a file with categorised items (as a list, or in table format at the end of the file)

Now we have three projects ongoing that the material can be used for: One in collaboration with Droso4Nigeria (www.droso4nigeria.wordpress.com<http://www.droso4nigeria.wordpress.com/>), and another with Rwanda (https://firat.rw/partners). In addition, we aim to enhance biology education in secondary schools using hands-on resources and visual tools to make science more practical, engaging, and relevant to young learners (with https://blostemei.org/).

More projects will pop up in any case in the future, so any materials, etc…available at any time, please let us know

Thanks!
