February Service Project: Making Blankets for Soldiers

February Service Project:  Fleece Blankets for Soldiers
When:  Saturday, February 23rd from 1-4pm
Where:  Higher Ground room at Hope
What:  Making No-sew fleece blankets with associates from Kohl’sCares for Soldier's Angels Blankets of Hope
How:  Click here to sign up

We will have a limited amount of fleece available.  If you would like to bring your own, please bring two coordinating pieces of fleece, 2 yards each.  The colors do not have to be neutral.  Patriotic themes are a good choice.  JoAnn’s often has sales on their fleece.
At the next meeting we’ll also be collecting funds to ship the blankets.  With the blankets being so big & bulky the expense to ship them adds up quickly.  Please consider bringing in your loose change to help send our blankets to those who need them.
