Donations for Ohio's Homeless

Thank you Lori R from Ohio for this thoughtful donation of 16 crocheted squares...so many pretty colors, 5 hats so nicely tagged with size, and 6 nice warm large scarves.  Awesome donation.  Please welcome Lori to our group, it's so nice to have another new pair of helping hands.  Please keep up the good work.

We hope to see you here often on Bridge and Beyond.


2013 working calendar is not yet posted, but our focus for January is slippers.  Please see slipper tab.

**Please remember tag your items (except scarves) with size.  Hats, mittens, slippers should be tagged with s-m-l...adult, child.**

**I will continue to add numbers to the years totals after Dec 31st, so all donations received by years end will be counted in the year they are received.  Since each donation is a day, they will be some over flow into January.  Thus year end numbers won't be finalized until then.*



All donations regardless of size and number are valued. All donations are appreciated, and all donations keep someone warm. We help, one stitch at a time. YOU truly DO make a difference. THANK YOU!

Where are You and Your Yarn From?

I'm trying to identify where everyone is from, partially for fun. Take a look at the map. Also, believe it will aid me in cases where we have several people with the same name. Please look at the lists of bloggers and non bloggers and see if I have the state you hail from. If not, please leave a comment and let me know.

Additionally, we've had help from Scotland, England, Germany Puerto Rico, Canada, and France! They don't appear on the map, but their help is still greatly appreciated.

Where The People Who Donate Come From, is your state represented?
