Crocheting Helps The Homeless

 Thank you Gail B from this wonderful donation of crocheted goodies.  Lots of scarves here in this picture.  Didn't have enough room to lay them all out, so you see most of them are folded up, but if your click to enlarge, you should be able to see the variety.  All the scarves are large enough to wrap around to be warmer.  Nice colors too.
Gail has also included some pretty cotton washcloths in her donation, along with hats nicely tagged with size, and a very pretty edged scarf.

Many thank for your thoughtfulness and your long time support of Ohio's homeless through Bridge and Beyond.  Please know you made a difference, an important one.

As always, please keep up the good work.

**The counts on our progress bars are current. 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.

Personal Care so Very Much Needed by the Homeless

WOW!  look at all the goodies.  This is quite a haul of personal care items.  Toothpaste, toothbrushes, chap stick, shampoo, lotion, dental floss, wipes.  This will be very helpful to lots of folks.  Thank you Sarah S for this very thoughtful donation.

As you know things in our country are very serious, very scary right now.  We've been told to stock up, to stay in, to shelter in place, to not go to work or school etc.  It varies a bit state to state; but one group that must be very much in danger are our Homeless.  Many have on going health issues, many don't have the ability to wash their hands, or have sanitizes etc.  So, these personal care items I know will be very well received.

I hope everyone is taking care of themselves and others.  Many thanks Sarah and please keep up the good work.

Hats from New York Aid Ohio's Homeless

Thank you Annemarie D from upstate New York for this awesome donation of knitted hats to warm Ohio's Homeless here on Bridge and Beyond.  As you can, Annemarie has a wonderful assortment of colors, styles, and sizes.... all beautifully made.  Extra thanks too for tagging each with size!

Most of the hats are knitted, but a couple are crocheted.  Several of the hats are doubled which will make them especially warm.........so nice and needed.

Many thanks for your long term support of Bridge and Beyond, it's greatly appreciated.  Please keep up the good work and know you are valued and make an important difference in the lives of those less fortunate.

Where are You and Your Yarn From?

I'm trying to identify where everyone is from, partially for fun. Take a look at the map. Also, believe it will aid me in cases where we have several people with the same name. Please look at the lists of bloggers and non bloggers and see if I have the state you hail from. If not, please leave a comment and let me know.

Additionally, we've had help from Scotland, England, Germany Puerto Rico, Canada, and France! They don't appear on the map, but their help is still greatly appreciated.

Where The People Who Donate Come From, is your state represented?
