Crafting a Rainbow of Hope Community
Crafting a Rainbow of Hope Community
If you know me then you know how passionate I am with helping those who truly need it and my love for crochet. I have been involved in several charities and gifting to those that I felt needed a little extra love for a few years now and I love every bit of it. In 2013 I really started thinking about how I should have a community of my own that gifts to people who are grieving, going through hard times, who are ill, specific charities, hospitals, animal shelters, etc. It warms my heart to give a handmade item to someone who I feel could use it or a pet that is lonely. Weaving that special bond between others is amazing. In November of 2014 my dad was put in the hospital. That’s when I met Danny from Guest Services who mentioned the cancer patients were in need of warm hats, scarves, and such while undergoing their treatment. With all of this in mind “Crafting A Rainbow Of Hope” became a reality.
