You don't have to have Yarn to Donate and Help

personal care items for homelessThis is a wonderful donation, a non yarn donation proving once again everyone can help! You do not need to knit, you do not need to crochet, you do not need to be able to loom to donate, to make a difference in the life of someone less fortunate. While the primary mission of this blog, Bridge and Beyond is hand made donations (hats, scarves, mittens, slippers etc.), personal care items are always needed.

Thank you RoseMarie for this thoughtful donation, it's greatly needed and appreciated. RoseMarie does in fact donate with her skilled hands. These soaps (60 bars), and shampoo's (8), will be heading to Faith Mission with additional cotton washcloths I received since my delivery.

2011 Donations:

Scarves 227
Hats 445
 Mittens (gloves) 117
Socks 80
 Slippers 62
Ghans 29 (2 went to Pine Street Earlier)
Squares 280
Sweaters 5
Ponchos 58
Cotton Washcloths 233

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!

    HEY Sandy! -- what is our next "project goal"? Give us a hint... or is it on the page somewhere and I missed it ? Just want to say how much I enjoy checking in to this site each morning and seeing who's got something new.

    It's great that people can help in so many different ways. I can't do a lot by myself but with many different people contributing it all adds up.
