Team Work Helps Ohio's Homeless

I LOVE this donation!  It's particularly special to me because it's team work at it's finest.  These scarves are the work of a group of young women, Girl Scouts!!  A local Girl Scout Troup learned to knit and used their loving time to make this donation.  Lots of different designs, colors, and sizes of scarves; as well as a neckwarmer/gator/cowl.  I was contacted by their leader, Melissa P.  I really enjoy seeing young people, who often get a bad wrap about being selfish or uncaring, putting their time to such good use.  What a truly wonderful project.  They all learned to knit and to give to those who's needs are greater than their own.  I really do think this is very special.

Thank you Emma P, Maggie P, Jillian G, Ella S, and Bianca C.  The girls rang in age from 14 to 17.  Nice work ladies, you should feel very proud of yourself, I know I am.

Please keep up the good work ladies, and best of luck with whatever your next Scout Project is.
