Caring Hands Placemats for Meals on Wheels
Tuesday October 29th 10am-12noon
Join us as we create paper placemats for Meals on Wheel clients. We will be using stickers, so NO artistic ability is necessary. This event is always well attended and is a wonderful way to meet and get to know other members of New Neighbors. Placemats and stickers will be provided. But if you have any stickers lying around the house, please feel free to bring them along.

Caring Hands Birthday Cards for ill Children
Tuesday December 17th 10am-12 noon
Please join us as we made personalized birthday cards for chronically ill children. Imagine being a child, critically and chronically ill. And it’s your birthday. No party. No friends. But what if someone cared enough to send a handmade, personalized birthday card. Just for you. Card stock, markers, crayons, etc. will be provided as well as the first names of all the children.
NO artist ability necessary; just the desire to put a smile on a child’s face.

Caring Hands at Hope Totes
Wednesday February 26th 10am-12 noon
Hope Totes provides decorated canvas tote bags filled with new clothing, pajamas, toiletries, and more to children being removed from their homes or schools and often relocated to foster or emergency locations. Caring Hands helps to assemble the items for each bag, and if artistically inclined, can help decorate the totes. Our members have been volunteering with Hope Totes for years, and many continue to volunteer on their own.
Please join us. The need is great.
