Eand great initiative for children in need! Amsternannies is working hard to fill and collect as many backpacks as possible. Are you participating? Then bring your backpack to our office at Tweede Jan Steenstraat 23hs in Amsterdam and we will ensure that it ends up in the right place.

See the conditions for the backpacks below.
