WARMING FAMILIES is a 100% volunteer project which has two main goals.
As part of ONE HEART, Inc., WARMING FAMILIES works to strengthen and unite families by encouraging them to work together to provide blankets, hats, mittens, and other warm items to homeless families and individuals throughout the world.
WARMING FAMILIES makes use of Area Volunteers, individuals who act as liaisons between volunteers and the shelters, foster homes, and assisted living facilities they serve. In some cases, volunteers accept donations of granny squares, yarn, or fabric in addition to completed blankets and other warm items.
As the Area Volunteer for Southeast Michigan, I have been in contact with several local area shelters. For the time being, donated items are being delivered to Help’s on the Way working with the homeless in the area. But when I find of a need in another area, I always do my best to help them out.
Please don’t hesitate to contact me. My email: thekings2607@sbcglboal.net If you live locally I would be more than happy to have any help you can offer. I am always encouraged to hear from fellow crafters who are eager to help others, even if it’s something as simple as knitting or crocheting one hat.
Remember that even one item can make the difference in the life of another.
