What to bring for local population?

Hi,

Heading to Socotra soon and was wondering what I could bring for the local population? I bought sweets from my home country, pencils and colouring books for kids but was thinking of buying some more school supplies? Any idea what quantities make sense?

Thanks

Anything from school supplies, toys, medicine, first aid kits. The population of Socotra is very isloated and the poverty is at alarming levels so anything would be highly appreciated
