Knitting For Charity
Warm hearts by knitting something for charity projects
Anchorage Daily News - August 1 2006
The weather has certainly been on the cool side lately. The fireweed blooms are getting near the top, and that means it's August. Jackets and warmer clothes, such as mittens and hats, are still not something I want to think about, but your favorite charity will need them soon.Charity knitting projects are included in many a knitter's project basket. Hats, mittens, scarves and sweaters are a welcome garment to receive when the frost coats the pumpkin, especially if you do not already have one.
The First Lady Military & Family Support Initiative needs donations. Deborah Bonito, wife of Anchorage Mayor Mark Begich, knows firsthand that the families of deployed military troops need support while they are holding down the fort at home. It is both supportive of and comforting to deployed soldiers to know that our community will take the time and the energy to help keep their families warm this winter. [more]
