The ISZL International Nearly New Children’s Clothing and Toy Sale

Designer kids clothes, toys and equipment at 2nd  hand prices

The International Nearly New Children’s Clothing and Toy Sale is back organised by The International School of Zug and Luzern (ISZL).     

The sale will take place on Saturday 3rd November from 11am - 3pm at the Christlicher Treffpunkt in Baar, just behind McDonalds.

It’s your opportunity to kit your kids out in designer gear and top international brands at 2nd hand prices - Everything you need for a baby right through to 12 years.

Get your hands on items from Baby Dior, Bonpoint, Burberry, Ralph Lauren, GAP, John Lewis, The White Company, Jacadi, Next, Cath Kidson, Kenzo, Debenhams and Mothercare at only a fraction of the price.   

With Winter approaching the sale is a fantastic opportunity to stock up on 2nd hand ski gear…  Baby all-in-one snow suits, ski pants and jackets from top names such as Columbia, Paul Frank, North Face and Patagonia, and winter boots from Sorel and Ugg as well as mittens, hats, goggles, helmets and ski reins.

Also up for grabs is a huge range of children’s toys, books, games and bikes. Also baby equipment including stair gates, high chairs, baby bouncers and Baby Bjorn carriers.

The beauty of the sale is that all clothes, toys and equipment have a strict inclusion policy of ‘gently worn’ so you really won’t know the difference!

The NNS sale will give a percentage donation from every item sold to the Ugandan Kids of Africa charity, supported by ISZL. Since we started the bi-annual sale in 2010, we have donated around Chf 60’000 to Kids of Africa – Many thanks to all our supporters.

Unsold items donated by vendors are given to ‘Licht im Osten’ and taken to refugee camps in Eastern Europe.

Burkhard Varnholt
Kids of Africa was founded by Swiss national Burkhard Varnholt and provides a stable home to Uganda children in need. Since 2012 ISZL has been working to support the building of the Kids of Africa Kids Pioneer School. The school, opened only 3 years ago, provides education for some 300 students from the home and the local community and is already highly successful, ranking at 800 out of 12’000 schools. ISZL has also supported the opening of the much needed KOA school on Nkosi Island, Lake Victoria, and now extends support to the development of a new vocational centre at the Kids Pioneer School.

Background: Kids of Africa was opened by Burkhard Varnholt after he responded to a letter sent to him by chance in 2001, from a Ugandan student. Burkhard responded to the request for education support and a beautiful story follows… After some years of friendship, Burkhard and the Ugandan student planned a future; Kids of Africa.
 
Quoting Burkhard in an interview with ISZL students: ‘When coincidence happens and an opportunity presents itself there’s value in listening – Something great can come out of it and it did for us – Kids of Africa has become one of the most important things in my life and in the lives of my family.
 
It was a stone in water opportunity – 15 years ago I dropped a stone into water - Just by throwing a stone you can have much more far reaching effect than you could ever anticipate. It happened to me and is so powerful. It can happen to everyone and anyone.
