Scarves Keep Homeless Warmer

Thank you Marie-Jeanne for this thoughtful donation of crocheted and knitted scarves.  What a nice variety of colors to please and warm 7 more homeless people in need.  Marie-Jeanne is our newest pair of helping hands.  So glad you found us Marie-Jeanne and hope to see you here often on Bridge and Beyond.

We're still having winter coat weather many days and nights, frost, high winds and lots of rain so warm items are still very much needed by those less fortunate than us.  Some folks are living out in the elements, some in temporary shelters who still spend the bulk of their day outside.  So please folks, keep your hands busy with hook, yarn, and needles.  The need continues.

Thank you again Marie-Jeanne, and welcome to Bridge and Beyond.
