Our Group's 2012 Distribution Totals - Amazing!

Preemie Blankies

Last year, our small group of less than a dozen dedicated crafters managed to somehow make and distribute the following (2011 totals in parentheses):

Homeless: 164 (112) hats, 85 (53) scarves, 107 (30) pr gloves

Sick and Terminal Patients: 44 (88) shawls, 64 (51) lap throws, 64 (6) pr slippers

Preemies: 186 (111) hats, 109 (42) blankets

This doesn't count gently used items donated by residents, which we also distributed, including decks of cards and magazines. We really enjoyed doing this and hope to be able to do this for a long time to come.

We only promise ourselves that we will work for 2 hrs every Friday morning, together. However, most of us cannot help working a little during the week, off and on. Still, isn't it amazing at how things so small can add up to such a large difference in a needy person's life?
