Charity Work
My name Craftkitten is now really established. I have been finding
which organizations around Toronto are in need of hand-made crafts. I
know that
they must be more of a need but it's very difficult to find out who
really needs
things.
I have been trying to establish a list of organizations that need items
and
have come up very short so far. I have found hospitals that are in
need of
items and local community so am working with both of these now to assist in meeting the
need.
- Sunnybrooke
Hospital - need of lapthrows for the veterans
- Caring 4 Canadian Charities - items for preemies, babies,
children and troops.
It's amazing how difficult it is when living in a major city how hard
it is
to find the organizations that are in need for the items.
I would love to be able to
establish a
network of organization who need items and also a network of people
willing to
provide the items.
I do have an
online group that is trying to identify the various organizations that need various items.
Resources
Where to find yarn in the GTA
Knit for Less
Sew Knit
These
resources are besides the regular spots of Michaels, Walmart and
Zellers. I am trying to find spots that have good prices and
can
find the yarns for charity crafting.
