Giving Season

At the beginning of  December, we welcomed a new member, Julie, to our group.  Like the rest, she will soon be rolling up her sleeves and getting busy given to our communities.
At our general membership meeting, women brought in last minute items to warm those among us that are cold and later this month, Colleen with her helpers will go around to collect hats, mittens, gloves and scarves hanging on Christmas trees set up earlier in the month that have been donated from various sources.  One senior woman, from an assisted living facility, knitted 90 hats.  Wow!
Together we know that we are making a difference.  It feels good.

    Awesome job ladies! I finished a purple knit scarf over the weekend and plan to place it on the Winter Warmers tree in the Troy Public Library. Don't we love our Troy Library? I picked up three books on Grant Writing to assist our committee in applying for grants next year!
