"Such a great team of women, we couldn't do it without them. I have heard from more then one of them that this is making there lock down bearable. It gives them something to keep them busy, and is so needed. And the generous people receiving these items have donated over $1,000.00 to help big brothers big sisters. my heart over flows with the generosity of our community."
