Washcloths for Haiti's Children
Washcloths are a luxury in Haiti. But you or your group can help by crocheting or knitting washcloths for Haiti's Children.
Here's what the founder of the washcloth program said:
Washcloths for Haiti began when one of my best friends moved to Haiti to be a full time
Missionary. I wanted to help make a difference. My friend asked about the washcloth
that was in my kitchen and said they used them to bathe the children in Haiti. Where
could she get some. I started crocheting away, and sent washcloths as they were
completed. Then I thought about how we use them too! Why not sell some, and let
my friend use the fund in Haiti? So whether I send the washcloths themselves, or send
proceeds from the sale of washcloths, it makes a difference in the life of a child.
Please help make a difference.
THANK YOU!
You may also consider adding your washcloths to a hygiene kit or Christmas bag for Haiti's Children.
