Threads of Faithe

http://www.facebook.com/#!/groups/79313514102/

We are an out-of-pocket, home-based organization who’s mission is to help put a Threads of Faithe blanket on every baby that is born and has to stay in the Children Hospital. This is to give them a comforting feeling of arms holding them.

We rely heavily on the donations of yarn and supplies to the group. To see what we need check out our wish list. We also always need volunteers to help make the blankets, Newborn hats, and booties!

We are also starting a Card Ministry for those in need of alittle pick me up mail. Two ways to take part in this ministry either by donating supplies and stamps or being a Mail Out Person.

Please no spamming–this is a group for Charity and Friendship.

Threads of Faithe was created “In Loving Memory of MacKenzie Faithe” by her Aunt Pauline

Busy Hands for Charity

We are a group of ladies providing warm items for the homeless in a city with 1,500 homeless people in any given night. Winter and the cold will set in soon and I need to get items taken to 2 different places that serve the homeless by Nov to Dec. It is cold here from Nov to Mar.
We are here to crochet and knit warm caps, ear warmers, shawls and scarves and some blankets for those who are less fortunate then us. I can help pay the postage for those of you on a budget. The 2 place I give to are Good Neighbor and Salvation Army who are just down the street from me. Our items are used as Christmas gifts I was told.
I also make crochet diaper bags of which I have the pattern for and I add ‘goodies’ for the baby to the bags for low-income Moms. This time I am adding a Coupon Holder made of plastic canvas some of you ladies who CAN’T crochet or knit will be able to make these for me. ANd they are easy to ship. I hope you ladies enjoy working with me and can make some friends here. THANK YOU for joining!!

The Pink Slipper Project

http://www.pinkslipperproject.org/challenges-for-2011.html

What Is the Pink Slipper Project?

The Pink Slipper Project is an endeavor to warm the hearts and the toes of women and children living in shelters. Their goal is to provide hand-made slippers to as many women and children that they possibly can, adding new challenges throughout the year. 

Not only will a pair of handmade slippers help keep the recipients warm, when some have had to leave their home suddenly without any belongings, but will also be a daily reminder that someone cared enough about them to make something special just for them. A simple kindness goes a long way in the healing process.

Your slipper contribution does not need to be pink, and the slippers do not need to be made using our one seam rag slipper pattern, but they do need to be handmade, warm and, of course, new. Whether it be one pair of slipper you are donating or 20, your contribution is just as important.
