Crafters! Church Groups! Scouts! Share your talents and bring joy to our Hospice patients and their loved ones by sharing your beautiful creations! We are needing crafts to brighten our patient's rooms and hearts.
We ask that you create something that can hung on doorknobs, pinned on a board, sit on a small bedside table or suctioned to a window.
Size preference is nothing larger than 5x7 inches
There are many ideas on "Pinterest" and other websites. Use your imagination!
Encouraging cards for the patients and families are also welcome.
Create your projects and then our staff will deliver them to the patient/families.
Please apply here and we will reach out to you to discuss your ideas.
Thank you!
