Compassionate
Crafts
Some
of my friends love to knit and crochet. Everyone I know already has a colorful
throw given to them. So now what to do with the products of all that handwork?
Look no further!
www.woolworks.irg has a section on knitting
and crocheting for charity listed by state, with links for organizations that
make donations to U.S. troops; to centers for battered women and children; to
Native Americans Reservations in Arizona, New Mexico, and Utah; and to the
homeless in cities all over the U.S.
www.newbornsinneed.org would love clothing and
bedding items for newborn, sick, needy, and premature babies. You can donate
blankets, hats, booties, and afghans. All they ask is that you use the softest
yarn possible.
www.warmingfamiles.org is a 100% volunteer
project that delivers donated blankets and other warm items to the homeless and
displaced while strengthening families with their charity work. They supply to
local shelters and nursing homes.
