Operation Christmas stockings - We send (2000) of these to all of the hospitals that we help. Supplies needed are newborn sleepers, rattles, babie booties, hats, and pacifiers.
Operation Diaper Bags - (300) We offer these to anyone that is in need or in a crisis. Supplies needed are blankets, sleepers, rattles, travel size lotion, wipes, diapers, and bottles.
Operation Nursing home - We make bibs and booties for residents. We pick one or two nursing homes per year depending on our supplies. We need fleece and new towels.
Operation Diaylsis Centers - We make blankets and shawls for these. We pick two centers per year as our supplies come in. We need fleece for men and women. It takes 2 yards per person. Yyou can make the fleece blankets if you want and send those to us.
