Knitted Cotton Washcloths, many purposes!

Thank you Melinda G, our newest pair of helping hands for this thoughtful donation of knitted cotton washcloths.  Melinda hails from Las Vegas.  Not sure we've had a donation from there before?  Hard to remember, but I don't think so.  Welcome to our group, we're thrilled to have you join us here on Bridge and Beyond.

These cotton washcloths have so many uses for our friends, the homeless.  When folks spend time on the street, their skin is often easily irritated and cotton (knit or crocheted) washcloths are soothing, much nicer than store bought rough cotton washcloths.  Our folks also use them when they get a night in the shelter and get to shower.  Additionally, they are put in our welcome home packs when folks transition from shelter living to their permanent home...They can be used both as washcloths and dishcloths.

Many thanks for this nice assortment of colors, some suitable for men, others for women.  Please keep up the good work, Melinda.  We hope to see you here often on Bridge and Beyond.
