Quilts, Teddy Bears, Santa Sacks and Baby Hand Knits Delivered.

Today I visited Backpacks 4 Vic Kids, which provide necessities for children in foster care, and delivered 52 quilts, 60 Santa Sacks,  32 teddy bears with their little knitted vests and lots of hand knits for babies and toddlers. I also picked up a bag of precut Santa Sacks so if anyone has time to sew and no fabric, I'm happy to pass some on if you can drop in to pick them up. 

I also met Melanie who is co-ordinating the Santa Sacks and she was very happy with those I delivered today. They have requested 6,000 for this Christmas as the number of children and families affected by the pandemic is much greater than previously.

I also met with Sally, the CEO of the organisation and discussed what they need for their clients and she also loved the teddy bears in their vests, which make them more special.

   So far this year we've donated 411 quilts to those in need of a warm hug and it's only been possible thanks to all of you for your support.

It was lovely to see how happy they were to receive our donations and know that many children in care will be very happy with their new clothes, quilts and toys.

Hugs, Jan Mac
