Charity Tuesday
Charity Tuesday
June 20, 2023 10:30 am - 2:30 pm
Many hands make light work. Come help us put together quilt kits to send to Honduras. One Common Thread (OCT) is a charitable organization that gives women living in extreme poverty in the slums of Honduras an opportunity to earn money to support themselves and their families. We need help counting out fabric squares to put kits together that are then sent to OCT to be taken to Honduras. If you can spare a few hours a month we can make a lasting difference in the lives of these women and help break the cycle of poverty for them. We can't help everyone but together we can help as many as possible!
Feel free to come for the entire 4 hours or just a few hours. Any help is appreciated.
We encourage you to check out the website https://onecommonthread.org to get all the details and to see the beautiful faces of these women.
