Donating Socks and Slippers

AnneMarie's done it again! She's such a generous person and she's given so much of herself here on Bridge and Beyond. Thank you once again AnneMarie for all you do. 8 crocheted slippers of various sizes and colors and 18 pairs of always needed and much appreciated socks!

Special kudos for labeling the slippers, love it. It's important folks to do that, label them with the size you made. When things are distributed at the various shelters, it's hard for them to look at something and know whom it will fit. Please always attach and label slippers, and mittens.

Sizing on hats also makes life easier for them, but perhaps a little less of an issue.
