ongoing community service projects
Home Goods Collection
Each spring, we organize a collection for Welcome Home, a nonprofit agency which distributes home goods to families in need. In the past, we have donated linen closet items and
glassware. This spring we dropped off many bags of new or gently used towels. In the fall, Welcome Home will let us know what they need and we'll let you know!
Knitting for a Cause
Calling all knitters and crocheters. Please continue to make shawls and lapghans to be donated to elder residents of Hebrew Senior Life in Roslindale, Newbridge on the Charles in Dedham and Orchard Cove in Canton. Save your creations for the fall collection.
Join our knitting group! Knitters meet regularly to learn, advance their skills and socialize. If you're interested in joining the group click the link below.
