Heavenly Hats in Ravelry!

We are happy to announce that we have a Heavenly Hats Foundation Fan Group in Ravelry!

We have a Spring into Action Event, with donated hats due by March 15th. Our first ever event to donate to Heavenly Hats.

I just found out that a lovely family I do contract knitting for found out recently that their 5 yr. old son has leukemia. Please uplift this family in your prayers as they walk through this journey. Remember Mitch, and the others in this situation by donating lots and lots of hats!

Thank you!

Recycle 4 A Reason

Please help our group, Recycle 4 A Reason by donating to defray the yarn and postage costs we incur this spring, 2010. We have lots of creative fiber artists, knitters, crocheters who are all making items to donate to various charities, public and private. Your donation today will help us provide our artists with the yarn, tools, and patterns necessary to make our charity projects, and to get the finished items mailed to the organizations we donate to. Please help us spread the joy to tiny preemie babies to keep them warm, chemotherapy patients, to ease the multi-faceted issues with hair loss, and warm the hearts of those in underserved countries.

Our charities include:

Heavenly Hats, Green Bay, WI

Carle Foundation Hospital Neonatal Unit, Champaign/Urbana, IL

St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital

Mittens for Akkol

Precious Awakenings, donating to Beth Israel Medical Hospital, Manhattan, NY
OK Baptist Hospital NICU
Hats 4 Heroes
Pregnancy Crisis Center, Washington, DC
Homeless Shelter, Flasher, ND
Chemotherapy Clinics in CA, PA, MD
and more!!
