Craft it Forward

I am looking for people to join in crafting with a purpose. We will make cards for soldiers, mini photo albums for children in cancer wards, and blankets for the elderly in managed care. Something, anything, to feed the urge to craft – but give it forward. Our lives are enriched when we create and we can amplify that by crafting it forward.

"So glad to find a local crafting group with a social/conscience focus- crafting for a good cause is doubly valuable. As a flight attendant, I have blocks of extended time at home. I look forward to spending some of that time with Craft It Forward!"
