Attention all skilled knitters, crocheters, and quilters among our chapter members!
The USO is hosting baby showers for active-duty families welcoming new arrivals, and we want to ensure each bundle of joy is wrapped in warmth and love.
If you're willing to donate your time and materials to create beautiful baby blankets, your contribution will make a world of difference. Together, let's craft comfort and show our support for these growing military families.
​
There are no specific specifications for these blankets other than they need to be big enough to wrap a baby in and or fit in a crib.
Please reach out to Jennifer Wise (jennifer.wise@me.com) if you're able to assist for more details.
Thank you for spreading joy and kindness!
