I am the type of person who likes to help others, it is a way to give back to life, and to repay those who helped me along the rough roads of my own life. One night I was thinking of how people can help each other in ways which might really make a difference, and the idea of With Luv To Keep You Warm (Anything 'IS' Possible), was born...
Born of the idea of hope, not only for those who NEED it, but, for those who would like to OFFER it! You see, in this world, we know that lots of our donated monies never reach the actual cause, and so, many are sceptical about donating; also, many would love to do 'something', but, do not have money, time, resources, and other, and so, if people can MAKE something in their spare time, especially in a joined effort, then, those who are in need can have actual items in their lives which will enhance their lives somewhat. You never know what one handmade scarf, or pair of gloves, or hat might do to warm someone from the soul out, inspiring them to keep on keepin' on, ya' know what I mean???
On this night of this 'calling', I decided that I would teach myself to knit, and guess what? I did it! I am halfway to finishing my first scarf! I am so excited about this, for many reasons! It wasn't easy that is for sure, and I had to start, over, and over, until it came to me, but, I DID it!!!!
What is really cool about this type of org., is that it doesn't cost much to help out at all, PLUS, if you keep records of your supplies, they could be tax-deductable, depending on how much you spend a year. A skein of yarn is relatively inexpensive, especially at WalMart, Meijers, and other such places. So, outside of initial costs of needles, and so forth, which came to less than $20, I pay about $2+ some change to make probably 2 scarves, which is wonderfully inspiring, as it won't HURT me to invest the time, nor the small amount of cash to help others, see what I mean???
So, I am seeking anyone who would like to help in the least way. And, also, looking for sponsors to donate products. If anyone would like to learn more about learning to knit, or more information about helping, let me know, I will be glad to share what I can with you. Please, consider this, hope is about all those who are down have going for them, and often, that hope is trampled on day in, and day out, so, if such people realize that there are people who care enough to generate some hope, even in the smallest way, for them, that could be the determining factor in their future direction. Don't forget, there are lots of Mothers, with their children, who are down, and out, and suffering in many ways. Can't we join together to give them even the smallest bit of heartfelt warmth, and hope???
