Handmade has been busy shipping scarves you made to shelters for abused women
By Leslye's Blog | March 16, 2017 at 07:54 PM EDT | No Comments

I don’t know how it happened, but I missed sharing with you the good news of our February shipping, and here it is March, and we just finished shipping again.  So here’s the news:

February:  590 comfort scarves to 13 shelters throughout CA

March:  590 comfort scarves to 13 shelters throughout CA

YTD:  we’ve distributed 2,905 comfort scarves for abused women and 80 hats for their children to 50+ shelters.

Since we started at the end of 2008:  we’ve donated 94,905 comfort scarves for abused women and 3080 hats for their children to 70+ shelters.

Wow!  We couldn’t have done this without your contributions, donations, and support, time, and money.

Now we have to get busy gathering about 2,000 comfort scarves for shipping to most of our shelters in time for their Mother’s Day parties.  We need your scarves before April 20, our next shipping day.

You see, Handmade needs YOU!  Keep scarfing.  No matter how many scarves we send, we only scratch the surface of the need. 

With your support, we can achieve this goal.  Our scarves do help lift the spirits of abused women.  Keep up your good work.

Love,  Leslye
