Keep Our Kids Covered Charity Drive

Keep our Kids Covered Charity Drive

I started a “Keep Our Kids Covered” Charity Drive and I need your help.  I have joined with my church, Calvary Wesleyan Church, to help school kids in my community to who need winter wear for the colder months ahead.

If you would like to receive more information about the events happening at Jo’s Crafty Hook and receive a FREE crochet pattern, why not Subscribe to my Newsletter at my website.

 

 

I am sure there are kids in your community who need help, so I designed a collection of beanie crochet patterns just for this charity drive called the Barberton Beanie Bundle.

The Barberton Beanie Bundle has 3 crochet patterns inside with 2 sizes that can be made.  The 2 sizes inside the bundle are for a Toque, a Skull Cap, and Ear Warmers.

Premium Beanie crochet patterns, with multiple sizes to choose from, can go for $3 each or more. 

The purchase of the Barberton Beanie Bundle for $1.50 will go a long way in helping school kids in my community or yours.

Whether the beanies are donated to your community or mine, Keeping Our Kids Covered when it’s cold outside is all that matters.  

The Keep Our Kids Covered Campaign has 3 main purposes.
  1. Donations of Beanies to Calvary Wesleyan Church will help keep our kids covered during the colder months.
  2. Keep Our Kids Covered in prayer .  We pray for the kids in our community because we don’t always know their home life situations.
  3. The final purpose is with your purchase of the $1.50 Barberton Beanie Bundle all of the proceeds (minus PayPal fees of $.52) will be donated for the Sports Camp Youth Ministry that we offer every year to the kids in our community.
What you can do.
  1. Purchase a copy of the Barberton Beanie Bundle for $1.50 from my Ravelry Store or my Etsy Shop
  2. Spread the word about the “Keep Our Kids Covered” Charity Drive.
  3. Create a Charity Drive of your own and donate your versions of the Barberton Beanies to my charity drive or create your local schools, homeless shelters, or where you can help the most.

You can mail your finished version and support my charity drive to:
