Dynamic Duo, Donating to Homeless

Thank you Wendy and Catherine.  Another sweet donation of colorful crochet from the Dynamic Duo (sisters).  These scarves are nicely sized for the kiddo's.  AND you know how excited I get when we get a donation of mittens!  I especially like that there's a couple of colors that work for the boys (the camo and blue scarves).  We appreciate how the two of you have joined forces to make donations for others.  

Keep up the good work girls....I know you will.

Yesterday was March 1st, our focus for the month of March and April will be on Men and their needs.  Men need dark, solid, sturdy hats, scarves, mittens, and slippers; as well as store bought socks and personal care items.  Please check the tabs across the top of the blog with regard to sizes and fibers etc.  When in doubt, please ask.  We want the donations to fit the need.

All donations regardless of size and number are valued. All donations are appreciated. The Power of One is awesome, and when we work together The Power of One becomes The Power of Many.

Hats for Homeless

LOOK at these fabulous hats!  I love the design, the colors and everything about them.  Ear flaps add extra warmth, and they're very stylish.  Thank you Dannie L from Ohio this thoughtful donation, and thanks too for adding tags with size!  Click to enlarge the photo folks so you see the detail in these knitted hats.  Awesome job.  I wish my knitting skills could match this...maybe when I grow up, lol.  

As I type this scheduled post , we're once again expecting yet another snow and ice storm to hit Ohio.  We're certainly not the only state lined up to get slammed again with frigid temperatures, too many are.  These storms add more difficulty for our homeless.  Please keep them in your thoughts during these very difficult times.

Knitted Donations for Homeless

Thank you Linda W. from Ohio for this thoughtful donation of knitted hats and slippers for our cold, homeless and those in need here in central Ohio.  Linda has also included personal items, which are always needed and appreciated by those living under the bridges, as well as those in the shelters.  Special thanks for taking time to add size tags to your hats.  

As of the writing of this scheduled post it's 20 degrees here in central Ohio, feels like 11.  And we're hopeful if the sun comes out today (as promised), we'll manage to get this snowfall melted........before it snows again tomorrow.  Would be nice to at least get a fresh start and not have snow piled on snow.  Spring is "officially" 31 days and 6 hours away; though we'll continue to have about 2 more months of cold weather here or more.  Frost is a danger until after Memorial Day, so please don't slow down with the knitting, crocheting and donating folks...the cold homeless are still very much in need.

Reminders:
**Please remember to tag all hats with size, as well as mittens and slippers**
***Please remember to avoid white, tan, beige and light colors that easily show dirt***
****Please remember to include a note with your name and email addy with your donations****
