My next project

June 8, 2008 by Margie Clayman 2 Comments

I have given careful thought of what I want to attack next. In the end, the decision seems pretty obvious.

For the last few months, I have been working on making things for a very local cause. Now, I want to do something for a cause in every single state.

I need your help with this…if you have a cause in your state that is particularly close to your heart, let me know and I will gladly support it.

In this day and age of the internet, the old phrase “not in my backyard” has changed. Surely your country is now your backyard.

I’m calling this project Crafting the Nation.

So here is a list of the states. Help me find a cause in each one.

Alabama

Arizona: Ninjasezzy preemie drive
Arkansas
California: Twizittles local oncology ward drive
Colorado
Connecticut: Salvation Army w/Priscilla’s Guild
Delaware
Florida
Georgia

Illinois: Greater Chicago Ferret Association
Indiana

    Checked up on your thoughts/question about the donations to Red Scarf Project and found on their website it’s the same as it’s been for the last couple of years, 5 per person. In the first couple of years I donated about 20 and helped her with getting the word out,(as did many others) as the were close to the deadline and still pretty short on the goal. Things ended up great. The Knitting and Crocheting forums and blogs came to the rescue and from then on it’s been quite a success and they set the 5 per person limit. What a nice problem to have, to get more than you need…too bad all our charities don’t have those issues.I often get emails from the gal in charge with updates, and haven’t yet heard the 5 will be cut down to 2. If I do, will sing out.Have a great daySandy

    Hi Margie, I saw your post on 25 Things and see that you do not have anything listed for Georgia yet. I would be honored if you would donated to Emmazing Grace. http://www.emmazinggracefoundation.org We’re having our annual donation drive right now and with each donation you’re entered into a prize drawing at the end. Thanks! Candy
