Help for Ohio's Homeless from GERMANY

donation for homelessThis donation comes all the way from Germany, from a military base (Schweinfurt Army Base) no less. That is soooooo awesome to me. Thank you Thank you Katie B, you are awesome! 9 scarves (though a few missed getting in the picture), found them afterwards. 11 hats, wonderful thick and warm hats too, and 15 cotton washcloths. Everything is fabulous and I truly was speechless when I opened this package.

Scarves 218+9=227
Hats 418+11=429
 Mittens (gloves) 113
Socks 80
 Slippers 55
Ghans 29 (2 went to Pine Street Earlier)
Squares 274
Sweaters 5
Ponchos 50
Cotton Washcloths 62+15=77

I hope everyone thinks of Katie and all other military personnel tomorrow especially since it's our Nations Birthday. Thank you Katie for your thoughtful donation, and thank you for your service!

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!

    Oh My is right Sandie in wet Florida...how'd that happen, you've been hot and dry for so long. Enjoy the rain. We're wet again here too, but...that's so common place.

    All the way from Germany! Wow. Our military gives so much already. Such thoughtfulness and consideration for others. Big thanks.

    Sandy, I did not forget about the cotton washcloth. I still have it here. Just haven't mailed it. My bad. I ended up crocheting one.
