The Yarn Shoppe Community is a committed group of knitters and crocheters that contribute their fiber arts and open their pocket books for good causes in the valley. We are happy to collect the preemie caps, chemo caps, and gifts on behalf of our knitters. We also sponsor the monthly Community Corner that has collected yarn for refugees to make caps and garments for sale, participated in toy and food collection drives, and will continue to sponsor new events. Thanks to all of your for your caring and generosity!
The Pediatric Oncology Christmas "Store" was a great success. Caps, Scarves, and a Hand Mufflers were donated in December 2009. All together we had 22 Items for the Kids! Thanks one and all! Listed below are "Score Cards" for our ongoing Preemie and Chemo Cap Drives. The nurses and patients at St. Lukes often remind us how appreciative they are for these hand-made caps, scarves, and blankets. There is ALWAYS a continuing need, so please keep up your efforts!
