Hands Help
Hearts
And Change Lives
What does it take to change a life? Less that you might think…
Tiny acts multiplied
by many hands change lives everyday.
Something
as simple as a handmade hat makes a world of difference to children and
families in need.
The
children and families in the village of Beaufort West, South Africa need our
help. The living circumstances of
this village are poor and dangerous beyond what most in America, or any western
culture can fathom. Living in a
climate very similar to that of the Southeastern US, the winters (US
spring/summer) are cold and wet.
Despite these conditions, the People of Beaufort West are beautiful with
a spirit of love and learning.
They need OUR
help!
The Goal (and it’s a
BIG one): Collect 1000 Handmade
hats by January 12, 2014
What can YOU
do? Knit or Crochet a hat (wool is
warmest) in any size from infant to adult.
Don’t Knit or Crochet?
We’ll teach you. There will
be mini-classes available for groups who want to learn.
Don’t WANT to Knit or Crochet? Don’t worry – you can still help! We need DONATIONS
of yarn (wool preferred), knitting and crochet supplies, or money toward these
items*
