Philanthropy News for February

I continue to learn about the evolving role of the Philanthropy Chair. I so appreciate the support of seasoned philanthropic knitters from our Guild, please continue to guide me. There is always room for more donations of knitted items. The distribution of knitted items will continue to the organizations currently supported by the SDNCKG philanthropy knitters. This month a load of knitted hats was sent to the Emilio Nares Foundation, supporting Rady Children’s Hospital.

Pick up and Drop Off Event: On Tuesday, February 9, from 11:00 am until 12:00 noon, I will be at the lower parking lot of the Solana Beach Public Library, 157 Stevens Avenue, Solana Beach, 92075. Click here for a map. Guild members can meet me to pick up free yarn and patterns, and drop off completed items – I hope to see you there. Social distancing and masks are required.

I still have three partially completed, beautiful crocheted blankets. If there are crocheters who would be interested in completing these, please let me know ASAP. These may be finding a new home soon.

I can be reached at the email address below, or at my contact information in the Guild directory. Please send me your ideas and suggestions. Thank you.

Stay Healthy
